Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA)

Fully-funded postdoctoral position: Towards quantum sensing at ultrafast speeds

Job sichern

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our groundbreaking project aimed at revolutionizing the temporal resolution of quantum sensing using nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in diamond. While NV-based quantum sensors have demonstrated exceptional sensitivity to external electromagnetic fields and nanometer-scale spatial resolution, their temporal resolution is currently limited to the nanosecond regime, prohibiting the exploration of ultrafast phenomena. Our goal is to overcome this limitation by developing protocols to manipulate NV centers on ultrafast timescales – down to femtoseconds (10⁻¹⁵ s) – thus improving temporal resolution by over five orders of magnitude. This will involve combining femtosecond laser technology with microwave-based spin manipulation to induce ultrafast transformations in matter and encode transient current density redistributions into the phase of NV spin qubits using a “quantum lock-in” technique. This breakthrough will enable the quantum-sensing-based investigation of fundamental processes such as collective excitations in solids, light-driven phase transitions, and chemical transformations, opening new frontiers across condensed matter physics, chemistry, and quantum information science.

Desired skills:

  • Strong experimental background in (1) quantum magnetometry based on spin defects in solids / related field OR (2) ultrafast optics
  • Motivation to perform challenging high-risk research with potentially big impact
  • Ability to work independently
  • Willingness to learn new techniques
  • Ability to develop a vision for the future development of the project

If you want to join us on this adventure, please send your application (consisting of CV and names of 2-3 references) to: denitsa.baykusheva@ista.ac.at. Note that recommendation letters are not required at this stage.
