    Default job background
    Description

    Do you have the skills to be part of NPL's role in giving the UK a world-leading position in the rapidly developing quantum technology market? The Quantum Electrical Metrology Group has an opening for Higher Scientist to work on the control of solid-state quantum systems.

    You will be joining NPL's Quantum Technologies Department at a very exciting time - as quantum phenomenaare deliveringbreakthroughs in many areas, includingincreased information processing power, secure communications, high-precisionmeasurement and sensing,and earlydiagnosis of diseases.

    TheQuantum Electrical Metrology Group undertakes research to establish new quantum standards for electrical base units and electrical quantities and new techniques for sensing and manipulating the quantum state of electrons in solids.

    We work with leading UK and European researchers from academia, our counterparts at other national laboratories and emerging players in the quantum technologies industry.

    This can be through scientific collaborations on topics such as control of ballistic electron transport in solids, experiments with other National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) on establishing the universality of single electron pumps or work with industrial customers on tests of components for use in quantum technology research.

    Solid-state quantum technology requires several high-tech facilities. Through our own fabrication expertise and working with project partners we have capabilities for fabricating novel nanodevices. We also have multiple cryogenic measurement systems equipped with RF control and readout electronics, multi-channel control/acquisition systems.
    Optimising the design and control of quantum devices is a huge challenge in many ways.

    We are currently growing our team of scientists to increase our ability to deliver both device-based research and novel measurement capability for our partners in the development of new quantum technologies.

    We are particularly interested in early-career scientists with experience in one of the many areas that quantum technology research can involve (device fabrication, control software, electronic hardware, cryogenic systems).

    The Quantum Electrical Metrology Group is a part of the Quantum Technologies Department, and we are an inclusive group of scientists who are supportive of each other and of our professional development.

    NPL is committed to a 'digital NMI' status, and as a team we are developing new digital ways of working, that not only increasing productivity and efficiency but through a combination of remote control and automation are allowing us to each have greater flexibility in our working patterns.

    Currently we perform a mixture of on-site experimental work and off-site remote work, working together and continually improving, to deliver excellent science that supports a positive work-life balance.

    We aspire to have greater diversity within our team and particularly encourage applications from women and those in underrepresented groups.

    Experimental research on single-electron transport, electron quantum optics, cryogenic nanoelectronics, single-photon detection.
    Support the development of new and enhanced quantum electrical standards
    Working with our fabrication team, design and optimise semiconductor nanodevices
    Collaborate with broader team/consortium on software/hardware interfacing challenges such as machine learning
    Collaborate internally and externally in developing the concepts and theories in the field of quantum electrical metrology and quantum device control
    Building experimental set-ups and bespoke instrumentation
    Designing and implementing control and data analysis software
    Analytic and numerical analysis of experimental data
    Writing scientific papers and making conference presentations
    Preparing and presenting project and internal reports
    Supervising PhD students
    PhD or equivalent research experience in physics or electronic engineering.
    Experience in solid state quantum systems (semiconductors, superconductors, etc)
    Work experience within an engineering, research and development, or software/hardware development environment
    LabVIEW, MATLAB and Python
    Experimental research on single-electron transport and related effects
    Electronics design and implementation
    Advanced experience with software development and system integration
    Working in projects with external collaborators
