Postdoc position in Nice (France): cooling and quantum transport of cold Strontium
position expired
INLN, Nice, France
![]()
A postdoc position is available in the mesoscopic physic with cold atoms
group at INLN (Nice, France). The contract may start in the last quarter of
2007 or at the beginning of 2008, initially for 1 year. The position is for
working on a cold strontium experiment. It will consist in studying the
quantum transport in a quasi periodic potential. Because of the long living
external coherence, Strontium atoms are good candidates for this type of
experiments. Quasi periodic potentials are unique structures where both
periodic like and random like behavior such as Bloch oscillation or
localization phenomena are expected. The applicant will conduct a series of
experiments in this domain. He or she may be also involved in other
research interests of the team such as new cooling schemes based on
velocity selection in the metastable 3P2 states.
