PhD Positions, University of Ulm, Germany (2017)

Ulm University enjoys an excellent national and international reputation for innovative research, interdisciplinarity and successful training and ranks among the most renowned research universities in Germany in the field of natural sciences. A main research focus of Ulm University is quantum science which is also the research field of the Institute of Quantum Matter. Ulm University plays a central role in the Science City of Ulm, not only as the region's biggest educational facility, but also as an important motor for R&D.

The Institute of Quantum Matter is specialized on experimental research with ultracold quantum gases, such as Bose-Einstein Condensates and degenerate Fermi gases. There are three laboratories with state-of-the-art equipment to investigate ultracold Fermi gases in optical lattices, atom-ion collisions and ultracold Rubidium molecules.

The research group is directly associated with the cross-disciplinary Center of Integrated Quantum Science and Technology (IQST) of Stuttgart and Ulm. It is also part of the Collaborative Research Center SFB/TR21 on “Control of quantum correlations in tailored matter” (CO.CO.MAT), as well as the Marie Curie International Training Network “Cold Molecular Ions at the Quantum limit” (COMIQ).

We offer at any time:
- Exciting PhD theses in the modern fields of experimental quantum optics and atomic physics
- State-of-the-art technologies: Laser, ultrahigh vacuum, electronics, software, and hardware
- Scientific work in an international environment
