Engineer mechanical design Jobs in Jülich

Your Job :

We are working on scalable electronic architectures based on semiconductor spin quantum bits (qubits) to make the vision of a universal quantum computer reality. For scaling up the number of qubits into the millions, it is crucial to move parts of the control electronics closer to the qubits. To achieve this, we design and implement cryogenic integrated circuits for qubit control and readout in state-of-the-art CMOS technologies. Since qubits are extremely sensitive and operate in temperatures at low millikelvin levels, the requirements on power consumption, noise and area are severe. For this reason, it is necessary to develop new and groundbreaking architectures and circuit topologies. Modeling electronics and their interfaces to qubits in this challenging environment is an essential part of this.

• Abstract behavioral modeling of mixed-signal and digital integrated circuits
• System-level integrated circuit design
• Combined simulation of electronics and existing quantum mechanical models of qubits
• Scalability analysis and comparison of different electronic architectures and integrated circuit topologies
• Formulating detailed specifications for scalable integrated circuits from combined electronics and quantum mechanical models
