Marie Sklodowska-Curie Doctoral Researcher in Experimental Quantum Communications

In this project, the candidate will work on developing new techniques to support phase-based quantum communications and enable their wider adoption. The project will be carried out under the joint supervision of Dr Andrew J. Shields of Toshiba Europe Ltd and Prof Marcos Curty of the University of Vigo, and will primarily be conducted at Toshiba’s Research Laboratories in Cambridge, UK. The project will involve experimental work that will be accompanied by theoretical modelling and simulations.

The candidate will receive funding for 3 years and during this period will pursue a doctoral degree that will be awarded by the University of Vigo, Spain. The candidate will join a recently funded MSCA European Doctoral Network (DN) on quantum-safe Internet: QSI.
