The MIT-LL Quantum Information and Integrated Nanosystems Group seeks highly motivated researchers within the field of quantum information science to pursue the development of advanced technologies in the area of quantum information processing with individual atomic ions. Near-term research is focused on methods to enhance the fidelity of quantum operations, to control arrays of ions, to increase system robustness, and to advance trapped-ion computing, sensing, and time-keeping. Key technologies of current and future interest include integrated electronics and photonics and explorations of noise affecting trapped ions. Activities may include operation of cryogenic UHV systems and associated lasers and control electronics for trapping, cooling, and quantum-logical manipulation and spectroscopy of individual atomic ions, as well as design, simulation, testing, and validation of ion-trap-integrated devices. Participation in program development in this and related areas is also possible.
