Quantum spectroscopy using non-classical light is emerging as a new disruptive technology for improving sensing and microscopy beyond classical limits. The present project takes advantage of the unique capabilities of entangled photon pairs for measuring greenhouse and trace gases at high sensitivity and selectivity in the atmosphere, and for improving non-linear microscopy of biological samples at low incident intensities to avoid damage in fragile organs. Your job: Lead the experiments with the associated PhD and Master students. Analyze the data, and contribute to the writing of scientific articles. Present the results at international conferences. We offer: The brutto salary ranges approximately from 70000 CHF/year to 100000 CHF/year depending on the experience of the candidate. Social charges amount typically 23%. Duration : 1 year, renewable.
How to apply
The required skills to apply to this position consist in a deep expertise (PhD or equivalent) in quantum optics, including entangled photon pair sources and single photon detection schemes. If you are interested and qualify please send an e-mail to us
