The quantum science revolution is opening new possibilities in computation, communication, and cryptography. Currently, the leading platform relies on superconducting circuits, which offer strong performance but suffer from sensitivity to magnetic fields, charge noise, and relatively large device sizes that limit scalability. To address this, we propose to develop quantum devices based on two-dimensional materials such as NbSe₂ and MoS₂. These materials enable atomically thin structures with clean interfaces, high stability under external magnetic fields, and tunable superconducting properties. This flexibility offers new design opportunities while significantly reducing device size.
During the project the candidate will 2D Josephson junctions using different architectures and integrate them into microwave resonators to test their operation as qubits. The measurements will be performed at mK temperatures. The project will be done as part of international collaborations.
