Projektbeschreibung
Quantum sensors, quantum computers, and quantum networks are examples of a future based on quantum technologies, with new dimensions of secure communications, computing, measurement, and in many other areas. As quantum products become more complex, near-market companies are forced to assemble both software and hardware for their own custom control systems. Controlling the quantum bits of quantum products requires complex and carefully orchestrated signals. The corresponding device parts are currently still extremely expensive. The core problem is a so-called arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) for high-precision generation of the necessary signals to drive the quantum bits.
Aufgaben
Depending on the project:
- First, a functional system with a conventional AWG is to be built and characterized.
- Then the necessary signal sequences are developed using the conventional AWG.
- In a transfer step, the sequences have to be programmed into an FPGA.
Anforderungen
Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, physics or comparable engineering-related field of study.
