Postdoctoral Position in Theoretical Physics

**Job Description**
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in theoretical physics focusing on cavity-coupled quantum dots. The interdisciplinary research spans quantum transport, quantum optics, and quantum thermodynamics, highly relevant for emerging quantum technologies. The postdoc will collaborate with theoretical and experimental physicists at Chalmers and international partners in the FLAG-ERA project ThinQ. The position is based in the theory division of the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience (MC2) within the group Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Nanoscale Devices, focusing on terahertz quantum sensing with bilayer graphene quantum dots in resonators. There will also be opportunities to investigate thermodynamic properties of cavity-coupled quantum-dot systems in collaboration with PhD students and postdocs.

**Skills & Abilities**
• Strong interest in the theoretical analysis of nanoscale and quantum devices, at the interface of quantum transport, quantum optics, and thermodynamics
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
• Experience in theory of quantum transport or quantum optics
• Self-propelled with a strong driving force to pursue excellent theoretical research in a collaborative environment
• Accustomed to teaching
• Demonstrated good potential within research and education
• Experience in both quantum transport and quantum optics (strengthening)

**Qualifications**
Required Degree(s) in:
• Theoretical Physics
• Similar field

**Experience**
Experience Required:
• 4-10 years (Research Experience for PhD level)
Other:
• Doctoral degree awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline (exceptions for documented circumstances)
