Opis:

Project title: Quantum Optical Technologies
Project is carried out within the International Research Agenda Programme of the Foundation for Polish Science

Project description:

The central objective of the project is to explore specifically quantum phenomena, such as superpositions and entanglement, to develop new modes of quantum information processing and transmission, metrology, sensing, and imaging.
Successful candidates will work within one of the following research teams:

Quantum Technologies Lab led by Prof Konrad Banaszek. Possible research topics:
– Characterization and modelling of optical channels, especially in the context of quantum communication protocols; identification of capacity limits and mitigation of noise and imperfections;
– Designs and performance analysis of unconventional detection techniques operating beyond the standard quantum limits.
– Super-resolution imaging techniques exploiting spatial coherence and/or multiphoton measurement strategies.

Quantum Information and Inference Lab led by Dr Jan Kołodyński Possible research topics
– quantum dynamical models of hot (also multi-species) atomic sensors that include dominant decoherence and collision (e.g. spin-exchange) mechanisms, when measured continuously with light.
– numerical simulations (quantum trajectories, Monte-Carlo) of opto-mechanical and atomic sensors operating in real time with applications and analysis of current experiments.
– development of software data-inference and signal-processing tools (Bayesian filtering, compressed sensing, machine learning) for them to be compatible and efficiently used when supplementing (real-time) quantum sensors.

Quantum Resources and Information Lab led by Dr Alexander Streltsov.
Possible research topics:
– Quantum resource theories: exploring fundamental features of quantum systems, such as quantum entanglement, coherence, and quantum thermodynamics. Addressing questions such as the state conversion problem, quantifying resource costs for quantum process implementation.
– Quantum communication and quantum computation: application of quantum resource theories to quantify resource consumption in quantum communication protocols and to detect quantum features required for noisy quantum computation.
– Open quantum systems: application of quantum entanglement and coherence to detect and quantify memory effects in open quantum systems.
