RF Engineer (Internship)

RF Engineer (Internship) Assignment description The goal of the RF (Radio Frequency) internship project is to benchmark and establish standards for RT (Room Temperature) electronics and components. For example, one objective is to understand how properties such as phase noise affect qubit coherence time by simulating and modeling the key parameters influencing the property and system. With the identified parameter, the influence it has on the system will be modelled, simulated, and measured against QPU characteristics to confirm the effect it has on the system. Using all this information, a specification requirement necessary for RT electronics will be identified. Project scope Identify one parameter that is measurable and testable, such as: Crosstalk Linearity SFDR (spurious free dynamic range) Output power/SNR (signal to noise ratio) Phase noise/jitter Simulate and model the effect the testable parameter has on the system and thus QPU performance Find experiments to characterize how these parameters affect qubit experiments Perform experiments on current setup to benchmark components. Correlate data from qubit experiments with specifications of components. Required set of skills & experiences We are looking for a motivated MSc student in applied physics, electrical engineering, or a similar field, with a strong background in quantum mechanics and an understanding of RT electronics and components. Familiarity with the following would be valuable: Physics especially quantum mechanics Understanding of RT electronics and components Python What can you expect from us? We offer a paid internship in an inspiring environment with a dedicated team of scientists and engineers at the forefront of quantum technology. OrangeQS is a spin-off of QuTech that accelerates research in quantum physics and the development of quantum technologies for quantum computing. We support R&D labs with custom characterization and calibration software and develop customized characterization equipment for quantum computing R&D.
