Job Information
New York University Postdoctoral Associate (Javad Shabani) in United States
Recent superconducting qubit experiments have demonstrated single and two-qubit operations with fidelities exceeding 99%, placing fault tolerant quantum computation schemes within reach. On the other hand, semiconductor based devices have their own merits: fast manipulation, low power consumption and a more direct path toward scalability. This project attempts to make hybrid superconductor-semiconductor devices and circuits that could have advantages of both systems. Semiconductor-based Josephson junctions provide a new platform for tunable novel qubits where the Josephson energy can be tuned in-situ with an applied electric field to the semiconductor junction eliminating the need for flux tuning. Same device architecture can also be used to probe Majorana fermion physics and to build devices for topological qubits.
In compliance with NYC’s Pay Transparency Act, the annual base salary range for this position is $62,500 - $65,000. New York University considers factors such as (but not limited to) the scope and responsibilities of the position, the candidate’s work experience, education/training, key skills, internal peer equity, as well as market and organizational considerations when extending an offer.
