Description du projet
Former la nouvelle vague de chercheurs en électronique quantique
Financé par le programme Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie, le projet QuESTech souhaite établir un réseau européen d’experts spécialisés dans l’électronique quantique. L’objectif principal du programme de recherche est de créer, d’étudier et de qualifier des dispositifs électroniques quantiques. La formation couvrira divers sous-domaines de l’électronique quantique, dont la spintronique, l’électronique unique, les points quantiques et la thermodynamique quantique. Les projets de recherche porteront sur les développements technologiques dans les domaines de la croissance des nanomatériaux, de la nanostructuration et de la microscopie optique à balayage en champ proche. QuESTech entend également impliquer le secteur privé par le biais de détachements systématiques. En organisant des sessions de l’European School On Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies (ESONN) consacrées à la nanoélectronique quantique, QuESTech encouragera une nouvelle génération de chercheurs à s’intéresser au domaine émergent de la nanoélectronique au-delà du CMOS.
Objectif
Quantum Electronics provides a challenging and innovative multidisciplinary framework for training young researchers with excellent prospects for a career either in the industry or in academia. In this promising area, the “Quantum Electronics Science and Technology training” project, with acronym QuESTech, will create a European network of experts providing state-of-the-art training for young researchers in the general field of experimental, applied and theoretical Quantum Electronics.
The overarching science and technology goal of our research programme is to build, study, and qualify quantum electronic devices. QuESTech will train 15 ESRs through research in the sub-fields of spintronics, single-electronics, quantum dots, and quantum thermodynamics. The individual research projects will include technological developments in terms of nanomaterials growth, nano-structuring, near-field microscopies, transport measurement under extreme conditions and theoretical calculations. Several QuESTch results are already identified to be of commercial interest for the emerging Quantum Electronics industry.
Systematic secondments will be organised, including for every researcher a secondment of two months to a private sector partner. QuESTech will organise three sessions of the European School On Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies (ESONN) devoted to Quantum Nano-Electronics, combining both theoretical and practical training, and open them to young researchers outside the consortium. By 2021, we aim to have prepared a new generation of young researchers able to address the emergence of “Beyond C-MOS“ nano-electronics.
