PhD position in Quantum Matterwave Optics at FORTH-IESL

We are inviting application for a PhD position in Quantum Matterwave Optics.

The Cretan Matter Waves Group on Crete is one of the leading European Groups in Atomtronics and Matterwave Optics. We have recently built the first fully coherent waveguide for matterwaves, which we published in Nature. In this system, we used a novel gravito-magnetic matte wave lens to demonstrate delta-kick cooling down to a temperature of a few piko-Kelvins.

You will work on some of the most exciting and advanced experiments on quantum mechanics and ultra-cold atoms anywhere.
You will be part of an international, dedicated, and closely-knit team of young scientists.
You will receive excellent training. You will attend dedicated EU training schools. You will be working closely with some of the leaders in the field.
You will have the opportunity of placements in high-tech quantum companiesl
Last, but not least Crete is a wonderful island, a beautiful place to live.
