Engineering, Control, and Experimental Validation of a Metropolitan Fibre-Based Quantum Network

Organisation/Company Università degli Studi di Napoli “Federico II Research Field Engineering » Electrical engineering Researcher Profile Recognised Researcher (R2) Leading Researcher (R4) First Stage Researcher (R1) Established Researcher (R3) Application Deadline 6 Nov 2026 - 12:00 (UTC) Country Italy Type of Contract To be defined Job Status Not Applicable Is the job funded through the EU Research Framework Programme? Not funded by a EU programme Is the Job related to staff position within a Research Infrastructure? No

The research position is related to the developments of the activities to engineer a testbed platform for quantum networks.
In particular, the experimental research activity will focus on the implementation, characterization, and validation of a metropolitan quantum network based on optical fibre, aimed at interconnecting remote quantum processors and quantum-network nodes. The activities will address the transmission of qubits and the generation and distribution of entangled states across different network nodes. The research programme will also include the development and validation of solutions for network contro and orchestration according to a hardware-agnostic approach....
