About Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT)

The Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) is a research centre of excellence in Singapore. It brings together physicists, computer scientists and engineers to do basic research on quantum physics and to build devices based on quantum phenomena. Experts in this new discipline of quantum technologies are applying their discoveries in computing, communications, and sensing. CQT is hosted by the National University of Singapore and also has staff at Nanyang Technological University. With some 180 researchers and students, it offers a friendly and international work environment. Learn more about CQT at http://www.quantumlah.org

Job Description

The key job purpose is to extend our previous studies of artificial gauge field in SU(2) to SU(3) symmetry. We are using an ultracold gas of Strontium atoms and simple generalization to our tripod system. SU(3) symmetry appears in the Yang-Mills theory for high energy physics and more recently in specific problems in condensed-matter physics where three-fold band structure are engineered (Weyl semimetal, spintronics). One important aspect of SU(3) with respect to SU(2) is its higher dimensionality which allow for richer topological properties. For example, SU(3) transformations naturally break the time invariance symmetry leading to singularities of the Berry curvature and related magnetic monopoles.

Covid-19 Message

At NUS, the health and safety of our staff and students are one of our utmost priorities, and COVID-vaccination supports our commitment to ensure the safety of our community and to make NUS as safe and welcoming as possible. Many of our roles require a significant amount of physical interactions with students/staff/public members. Even for job roles that may be performed remotely, there will be instances where on-campus presence is required.

Taking into consideration the health and well-being of our staff and students and to better protect everyone in the campus, applicants are strongly encouraged to have themselves fully COVID-19 vaccinated to secure successful employment with NUS.
