Position Overview

0456-26

We are seeking an enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher for a new project to develop superconducting electronics using graphene Josephson junctions. Graphene Josephson junctions (G-JJs) offer the opportunity to build superconducting electronics that can be controlled electrostatically, which avoids magnetic fields that can interfere with other superconducting devices, such as quantum sensors or qubits. Until recently, the fabrication of G-JJs has been limited to mechanical exfoliation, which lacks reproducibility and is time-consuming and inefficient. VTT Technical Research Centre in Finland have developed a wafer scale fabrication process for fabricating G-JJs across an entire wafer, up to 200mm with plans to scale up to 300mm. 

The SuperICQ consortium is a recently funded EU Pathfinder Open project that aims to develop a host of superconducting electronics using this new process and to integrate these with superconducting qubits. At Lan...
