Offer Description

The Department of Physics at TU Dortmund University offers two PhD Positions. The duration of the positions will be limited to three years. According to the public tariff regulations, the salary is based on the tariff group E13 TV-L with 75 % of the regular work time.

Ultracold atoms have established as an excellent experimental platform for analog quantum computing of quantum many-body systems. Dissipation usually appears as a problem in quantum technologies, which has to be overcome. In the project „Stabilization of crystalline and topological phases using dissipation“ within FOR 5688 we utilize the excellent isolation of our system for stabilization relevant quantum phases via controlled dissipation.

In the course of the two PhD projects, an experimental apparatus for the production of quantum gases of ultracold lithium atoms [Brüggenjürgen et al., A phase microscope for quantum gases, https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.10611 ] shall be further developed and used for testing new protocols. This includes the coupling to a bath, the implementation of local projective measurements and the preparation of stationary stead states via the transfer into different spin states.
