Doctoral Thesis: Ion Trap Development

vor 1 Woche


Villach, Österreich Infineon Technologies Vollzeit

At Infineon, we are offering a unique opportunity for individuals pursuing a doctoral degree in the field of trapped-ion quantum computing. As part of our growing ion trap systems team, you will have the chance to contribute to the development of highly-scalable trapped-ion quantum processing units (ionQPUs). This industrial doctorate program allows you to pursue your doctoral degree at a university while gaining invaluable professional experience at Infineon. Mentorship for this position will be provided by both university professors and dedicated experts at Infineon, ensuring that you receive comprehensive support and guidance throughout your doctoral thesis. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with our partners at TU Chemnitz and Fraunhofer-Institut für Elektonische Nanosysteme (ENAS), who will provide world-class expertise in thermomechanical simulation and characterization of QPUs at cryogenic temperatures, and support with leading-edge interconnect capabilities. If you are passionate about quantum computing and eager to make a meaningful impact in the field, this is an ideal opportunity to advance your research and gain practical experience within a dynamic and innovative environment.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to work on trailblazing the development of scalable ionQPU architectures. Your mission will be to implement ion shuttling across multi-chip ionQPUs, based on reliable industrial assembly

In your new job you will:

- **Develop multi-chip ionQPUs**with chip-to-chip ion shuttling capabilities
- **Develop a reliable assembly-process**together with experts at Infineon, TU Chemnitz and Fraunhofer ENAS
- **Fabricate ionQPUs by defining a fabrication route, find solutions to process restrictions**and **implement measures to improve fabrication yield**:

- **Deploy your ionQPUs at the Infineon quantum lab**and demonstrate chip-to-chip shuttling
- **Collaborate with TU Chemnitz and Fraunhofer ENAS**on the investigation of the ionQPUs’ thermomechanical properties
- **Support the quality and reliability of Infineon ion traps**by defining control concepts for inline process control, device screening and component verification

**Start**:01.03.2025 (or later)
**Full-time employment**:38.5 hrs/week
**Duration**:3 years

A doctoral student is a research enthusiast,
- who enjoys working in an industrial environment in combination with an Infineon partner university
- who appreciates open communication and the contribution of an international environment
- are a **highly motivated**individual who wants quantum computing to become a reality
- have a **master’s degree in physics, quantum engineering**or similar
- have gained **first experience in semiconductor manufacturing or ion trap fabrication**:

- are **fluent in English and German**
