Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Swinburne Full time
About the Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our research team at the Centre for Quantum and Technology Theory (CQTT). This full-time PhD scholarship is available for a duration of three years.

Project Overview

The project aims to advance our understanding of polaritons in the strongly interacting regime far from equilibrium. Polaritons, known as quantum fluids of light, are unique particles that are half-light and half-matter, exhibiting superfluidity—frictionless flows with zero energy cost. This breakthrough is expected to usher in a new era of quantum polaritonics, laying the groundwork for energy-efficient lasers and all-optical transistors.

Key Research Areas
  • Determining the polariton-polariton interaction strength
  • Clarifying the non-equilibrium phase diagram of polaritons at very strong light-matter coupling
  • Exploring emergent quasiparticles of polariton-polarons in the highly imbalanced condition
About You

To be successful in this role, you will have:

  • Masters or Honours degree in a relevant field
  • Theoretical background in ultracold quantum gases and condensed matter physics
  • Demonstrated experience in numerical simulations
  • A valid working with children's check card (or ability to obtain prior to or upon commencement)
