Dear Colleagues,



I would like to bring your attention to several openings in quantum
information science at the University of Sherbrooke:

- Tenure track position in the physics department

- Post-doctoral positions in quantum information

- Visiting scientist/sabbatical program



Please pass this message to anyone that might be interested. To learn more

TENURE TRACK POSITION


The Université de Sherbrooke invites applications for tenure-track position
with a research profile in Condensed Matter Physics or in the Physics of
Quantum Information.

The new professor is expected to teach in French at the undergraduate or
graduate level and his/her research program, either in Experimental or
Theoretical Physics, will reinforce or broaden the research areas already in
place in the department. The 13 faculty of the department conduct research
in the following areas: Superconductivity, Strongly correlated electrons,
Magnetism, Quantum information, Photonics and Mesoscopic Physics. Many are
members of the following networks: RQMP (Regroupement Québécois sur les
Matériaux de Pointe), INTRIQ (Institut teansdisciplinaire d'informatique
quantique), CIFAR (Quantum Materials, Quantum Information Processing and
Nanoelectronics programs). They have access to world-class computing
resources via Compute Canada and to exceptional facilities in the fields of
Quantum Materials and Nanotechnology.

HOW TO APPLY
Résumés must be received by 5:00 p.m., November 30, 2011. Please use the
convenient electronic system to submit your application by clicking
"Postuler" to the coordinates listed below. With your résumé, also include
and letter of interest containing a short description of the research
program and a statement of vision on teaching.

In addition, please have three letters of recommendation supporting your
application sent directly by the signatories to the coordinates listed
below.

POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW



The physics of quantum information team at the physics department of the
Universite de

Sherbrooke invites applications for up to four postdoctoral positions. The
group is

composed of four faculty members, Alexandre Blais, Michel Pioro-Ladrière,
David Poulin,

and Bertrand Reulet whose research interests cover both theoretical and
experimental

aspects of quantum information science and mesoscopic physics. The
successful

applicants will be involved in the groupʼs activities, which includes:

- Experimental realization of spin qubits in various materials (GaAs, SiGe,
InAs, NV

centers,...)

- Experimental investigation of quantum and non-gaussian noise in various
mesoscopic

devices

- Theoretical aspects of superconducting qubits, circuit quantum
electrodynamics,

quantum optics in solid-state devices, quantum limited amplifiers,...

- Quantum information theory including quantum error correction, quantum
algorithms

design, and numerical methods for many-body problems (PEPS, MPS, DMRG).

but will also be able to pursue their own research agendas. We offer an
active and

stimulating research environment, enhanced by strong local and international

collaborations.

Interested candidates should provide a CV including a list of publications,
a brief statement

of research interests and should arrange for at least two letters of
recommendations to be

sent to: qip[dot]postdocs[at]usherbrooke[dot]ca. Applications and letters
should be

received by November 1, 2010, although later applications will be accepted
until the

positions are filled. The start dates are flexible.
