🚀 **Exciting PhD Opportunity in Cutting-Edge Quantum Research!** 🚀

Are you ready to push the boundaries of quantum systems? We're offering a **high-risk-high-gain PhD project** that explores revolutionary radio-frequency signal detection using free electrons and laser-cooled ions in a quantum mechanically coupled system. This project is funded for 3 years, with a 4th year secured by the department.

🔍 **Project Highlights:**
- Develop a tunable RF detector capable of detecting single photons.
- Work on planar trapping technology from scratch, including circuit board materials.
- Uncover new insights in quantum mechanics with a focus on signal information.

💼 **Requirements:**
- Strong programming skills (C++, Python).
- Experience in automation, electronics, lasers, and CAD.
- Master’s degree in quantum optics, quantum chemistry, or plasma physics.

📅 **Deadline:** November 30, 2024
✍️ **Apply:** michal.hejduk(at)matfyz.cuni.cz
