Post-doctoral positions in analogue electron quantum simulator

ICFO is offering postdoctoral positions to well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic young scientists who wish to enhance their scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment.

The successful candidate will be joining the international QTWIST program that includes Prof. Jarillo-Herrero (MIT) and Amir Yacoby (Harvard) as well as research groups of Prof. Adrian Bachtold, Prof. Carmen Rubio Verdú and Prof. Frank Koppens (ICFO) .

We are seeking highly motivated and skilled condensed matter Research Scientists to join our cutting-edge project on the development of a novel analogue electron quantum simulator. The goal is to construct a new experimental tool based on a graphene superlattice to not only measuring macroscopic observables, such as electrical resistivity and magnetization, but also probing the many-body quantum wavefunction of correlated electronic states. This new quantum simulator platform may unravel the microscopic nature of high-Tc superconductivity and other correlated electron states, such as heavy fermions in a Kondo lattice, integer and fractional Chern insulators, and orbital ferromagnets.

Suitable candidates are requested to submit:

• Presentation letter with a declaration of interest,
• Curriculum Vitae, including contact details,
• The contact e-mail of two potential referees.

Candidates will be assessed as they apply and the call will remain open until the suitable candidate is identified.

Candidates may contact jobs@icfo.eu for formal enquiries regarding the application, as well as address scientific enquiries to Adrian.Bachtold@icfo.eu, Carmen.Rubio@icfo.eu and/or Frank.Koppens@icfo.eu.
