Host: Quantum Photonics with Solids and Atoms at ICFO, located in Barcelona, Spain

Opportunity open to: Master students active in eligible countries

As part of QIA efforts to build a quantum repeater, you will work in developing a printed-circuit board that contains all electrical components as plug-and-play solution. You will acquire hands-on experience with optical elements, radio-frequency electronics, laser systems, and fibers.

Host: Quantum Interfaces Group at the University of Innsbruck, in Innsbruck, Austria.

Opportunity open to: Master students or PhD candidates active in eligible countries

As part of QIA efforts to build metropolitan-scale quantum networks, you will be working in integrating quantum frequency conversion into the existing two-nodes quantum network at Innsbruck. You will develop familiarity with a wide range of techniques in a quantum physics laboratory, including – trapping ions in ultra-high vacuum, – laser spectroscopy, – coherent control of quantum interfaces between light and matter among others.

Host: Deutsche Telekom Chair of Communication Networks at the Technical University of Dresden, in Dresden, Germany

Opportunity open to: PhD candidates or young professionals active in eligible countries

You will be working in designing a quantum protocol to synchronize the network nodes and the Mobile Edge Cloud. You will acquire knowledge on network synchronisation, quantum synchronisation protocols for 6G networks and quantum-classical simulation and emulation, among others.

Host: Quantum Software Lab at University of Parma, in Parma, Italy

Position open to: PhD candidate active in eligible countries

As part of QIA efforts to develop distributed quantum computing (DQC) services that can run over a quantum network, you will be working on a research study regarding the benchmarking of DQC platforms. You will acquire knowledge on benchmarking approaches to DQC and the use of the NetQASM Software Development Kit, among others.

Host: Quantum Computer Science at Delft University of Technology in Delft, the Netherlands

Opportunity open to: Master students (can be part of a master project) active in eligible countries

In QIA, we have developed the world’s first full stack quantum network system, which allows programming of quantum network applications in high level software. In this internship, you will take part in developing a test suite to test the workings of such a full stack system and learn more about the requirements of implementing specific applications on quantum hardware.

Host: Quantum Materials Group at LIST

Opportunity open to: MSc students with experience in physics, optics/photonics active in eligible countries

As part of QIA efforts to develop alternative solutions for quantum processing nodes you will be working at the Quantum Materials Group at LIST exploring novel ways of fabricating nanophotonic circuits based on Silicon vacancies colour centres in Silicon Carbide. You will work on photonic simulations to identify ideal parameters for SiC waveguides, fibre-couplers, and Bragg reflectors.
