Our PhD‑program brings together top‑level training and teaching for young scientists, benefiting from the extensive course offerings of local universities and focused instruction by ICFO professors, in a stimulating, international and interdisciplinary environment. PhD‑students have the opportunity to take advantage of our network of excellence, consisting in partners of national and international research institutes and universities, as well as industrial partners in the field.
The successful candidate will be joining the Atomic Quantum Optics group led by Prof. Dr. Morgan Mitchell.



The group uses the extraordinary coherence properties of atoms, together with an ever‑increasing sophistication in optical manipulation and measurement, to study fundamental physics of light‑matter interactions, quantum optical effects in advanced sensing, and new applications of extreme sensors.
Main Tasks and Responsibilities
The Atomic Quantum Optics group studies how quantum physics manifests in atomic systems and the optical systems that interact with them. The research ranges from fundamental studies such as the nature of quantum light‑matter interactions, to technologies such as quantum sensors. The student will join a small team working on a specific experimental system, which may be a single‑atom optical tweezer, spinor Bose‑Einstein condensate, or atomic vapor. The student will play an active role in developing this science and technology, in collaboration with other students, post‑doctoral rese
