Technische Universität Berlin - Faculty II - Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Institute of Physics and Astronomy - Research Group Photonic Quantum Communication Systems

Research Assistant - salary grade E13 TV-L Berliner Hochschulen - 1st qualification phase (for doctorate)

part-time employment may be possible

About us:

The research of the group "Photonic Quantum Systems" focuses on the fundamental principles of quantum information. By leveraging modern quantum optical methods-particularly integrated
photonic circuits on silicon and silicon dioxide optical chips-we explore key phenomena such as multiphoton interference and entanglement between quantum systems. These findings we apply in areas such as quantum simulation and quantum communication. lntegrated photonic circuits, in
particular, pave the way for the development of compact and practical quantum devices.

Your responsibility:

We are seeking a motivated and talented research assistant to contribute to the following tasks:

  • Designing and developing integrated photonic circuits for conducting quantum optical experiments
  • Publishing research results in national and international conferences as well as in peer-reviewed scientific journals
  • Assisting in teaching activities, including student lab courses

Your profile:

  • A completed scientific university degree (Diploma, Masters, or equivalent) in physics or a related field
  • Strong foundational knowledge in optics and quantum mechanics
  • The ability to teach in German and/or in English is required; willingness to acquire the respective missing language skills
  • Experience in measuring physical properties and analyzing experimental data
  • Proficiency in at least one common programming language (e.g., Python, C++, Julia, or similar)
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a team is desirable
  • Strong skills in abstraction, modeling, and creative problem-solving are desirable
  • Experience with optical setups is an adantage
  • Familiarity with simulating optical asystems and/or integrated waveguide systems is an adavantage
  • Prior experience in writing scientific publications is an advantage
