The University of Amsterdam hosts the Strontium Quantum Gases group of Florian Schreck, who is also the QuRIOUS coordinator. The group uses strontium quantum gases to study quantum many-body physics and for precision measurement. Two research projects are pursued: Continuous cavity-enhanced Sr clocks and Multi-ensemble, zero-deadtime, non-demolition readout Sr clock.
We do have open PhD positions both within QuRIOUS and outside of QuRIOUS. |

Florian Schreck uses ultracold quantum gases to explore quantum physics. After his PhD 2002 at E.N.S. Paris with Christophe Salomon and a postdoc in Austin, TX with Mark Raizen, he joined the group of Rudolf Grimm at IQOQI, Innsbruck in 2004. He founded his own research group in 2008, soon afterwards creating the first quantum gas of strontium. Another important breakthrough was to reach quantum degeneracy using only laser cooling. In 2014 he moved his group to Amsterdam, where he extended his research using an ERC consolidator grant and an NWO Vici grant. He is the coordinator of the AQuRA and QuRIOUS projects, as well as the previous iqClock and MoSaiQC projects.

Sumit Sarkar (postdoc) is a passionate physicist with a strong background in experimental quantum optics. During his PhD, his research focused on pioneering work in the realm of atom lasers and quantum simulations using cold atoms. Subsequently, his expertise expanded into the field of metrology and precision measurements using quantum sensors. He worked as a postdoc at SYRTE, Paris in the team of Prof. Franck Pereira to develop state of art quantum gradiometer. His current research pursuits revolve around the innovation of novel cold atom quantum sensors, showcasing his commitment to advancing the frontiers of quantum technology.

Graduated from Télécom Physique Strasbourg (France) engineering school and from the QTEP (quantum Technologies European Program) Master degree of the University of Strasbourg, Benoit Brouillet has joined Florian Schreck's group as a PhD student to work on the zero deadtime clock project. He had the opportunity to do a 6 months internship in this group and on the same project for his studies, allowing him to already have a good understanding of the whole project.
