We are looking for a  passionate /postdoctoral candidate/ to 
join***Quantum Electronics group* at the Department of Physics of the 
*Budapest University of Technology and Economics.*

The aim of the project is to engineer and investigate topological 
superconductivity in semiconductor nanowire and graphene based 
nanostructures. Very recently there is a huge excitement in the field 
about topological phases and special bound states, Majorana and 
parafermions. Nanowire with strong spin orbit coupling, induced 
superconducting correlations and in external magnetic fields have been 
shown to host Majorana bound states. Parafermions, fractional Majorana 
fermions are expected to appear in double nanowire setup. Topological 
states can be also formed in graphene connected to superconducting 
contacts either by inducing spin orbit interactions using the proximity 
of other 2D materials with large spin orbit coupling, or by using 
special quantum Hall states of single or twisted bilayer graphene. We 
will pursue these directions using low frequency transport measurement 
and microwave measurement techniques. The combination of these two will 
allow not only to do bias spectroscopy or supercurrent measurements, but 
reflectometry or on-chip radiation measurements. The final goal of the 
project is to construct and address Andreev qubits which could be the 
basic building blocks for topological quantum computation.


       DESIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

We are looking for a highly motivated researcher with a PhD degree in 
physics. The candidate should have excellent skills in experiments, but 
should be able to share his knowledge and work in a team. Excellent 
communication skills in spoken and written English are mandatory. 
Experience in nanofabrication or in low temperature transport 
measurements or in high frequency measurement techniques is desirable.


       TASK

Fabrication of semiconducting nanowire and graphene based devices, and 
performing low temperature measurements. Involvement in establishing a 
novel setup for dedicated high frequency measurements. Guiding and 
working together with PhD and MsC students as a team.



       ABOUT THE EMPLOYER
