Job Description
Missions
This short-term research contract (4 months) focuses on investigating the effects of semilocalization in disordered quantum emitter systems, with a specific emphasis on realistic models of molecules coupled to plasmonic structures. The goal is to develop theoretical insights and numerical tools to explore how disorder and plasmonic environments influence collective quantum dynamics, coherence, and entanglement.
Activity
- Analyse théorique et numérique : Étudier les modèles d'émetteurs désordonnés dans des cavités plasmoniques, en se concentrant sur les phénomènes de semilocalisation et leur impact sur la cohérence quantique et l'intrication.
- Développement et adaptation de codes : Mettre en œuvre et adapter des codes de simulation numérique (équations maîtresses, méthodes de trajectoires quantiques) pour modéliser les systèmes désordonnés et les interactions plasmoniques.
- Recherche collaborative : Travailler en étroite collaboration avec l'équipe pour intégrer les résultats aux projets en cours et aux collaborations expérimentales.
- Documentation et rapports : Documenter les processus théoriques et numériques, et rédiger des rapports synthétiques présentant les résultats et les perspectives.
- Transfert de connaissances : Partager son expertise et ses résultats avec les membres de l'équipe, contribuant ainsi aux objectifs scientifiques plus larges du groupe.
Your Profil
Skills
Knowledge Requirements: The candidate (M/F) must have a strong background in advanced quantum mechanics, with a PhD in theoretical physics. A solid understanding of quantum optics and the physics of interacting many-body quantum systems is essential. Familiarity with numerical simulation techniques for many-body quantum models is also required.
Skill Requirements: The candidate (M/F) must demonstrate proficiency in advanced scientific programming (preferably in C++ or Julia). Experience in scientific publishing and presenting research findings is mandatory. As the research project will be conducted entirely in an English-speaking environment, fluent written and spoken English (CEFR level C1–C2) is required.
Team Integration: The candidate (M/F) is expected to integrate into the research team, engage socially with other members, share ideas, and mentor junior researchers or students.
Your Work Environment
The successful candidate (M/F) will work as a postdoctoral researcher at the "Laboratory of Computational Quantum Theory of Many-Body Systems" (cqmt.org) within the "European Center for Quantum Sciences (CESQ)" (cesq.eu) in Strasbourg, France.
The CESQ is a transnational hub for research and education in quantum sciences, affiliated with the University of Strasbourg and the CNRS. It builds on Strasbourg's long-standing tradition of interdisciplinary research, spanning quantum physics, chemistry, materials science, photonics, and computer science. The CESQ provides a collaborative, innovative environment that bridges cutting-edge experimental and theoretical research. It is part of the interdisciplinary institute of excellence "ISIS – Institute of Supramolecular Science and Engineering" (UMR 7006).
The offices are located on the Cronenbourg campus in Strasbourg, a green and vibrant campus just minutes from the city center by public transport. The campus not only offers an excellent working environment but also provides sports facilities and an affordable university cafeteria.
