Visiting Student-Subcontractor - DSL - Hokenstad, Kara - 11.3.26.
About The Position
Argonne’s InterQnet project aims to advance quantum networks by demonstrating a heterogeneous network that creates entanglement between two dissimilar matter qubits using a third type as a quantum repeater. The InterQnet Ytterbium node provides high-fidelity spin-photon entanglement at 556 nm, while the Erbium node emits directly in the telecom band at 1520 nm. Their emission spectra are well aligned, making single-step frequency conversion feasible. Quantum frequency conversion (QFC) is therefore a key enabler of heterogeneous quantum links. This project will develop the QFC device needed to enable links between dissimilar qubit platforms. The entire appointment must be conducted within the United States. Applicants must be at least 18 years old when the appointment begins and meet one of the listed enrollment or recent-graduation criteria.
Requirements
- The entire appointment must be conducted within the United States.
- Must be 18 years or older when the appointment begins.
- Must be currently enrolled in undergraduate or graduate studies at an accredited institution, have graduated from an accredited institution within the past 3 months, or be actively enrolled in a graduate program at an accredited institution.
Responsibilities
- Develop a quantum frequency conversion (QFC) device to enable heterogeneous links between dissimilar qubit platforms.
