Doctoral student in Physics within the discipline of experimental nanothermodynamics
May 28, 2024 - June 14, 2024 , Department of Physics, Lund University, Sweden

This specific position focuses on conducting experimental investigations of heat fluctuations in nanoscale heat engines as a means toward demonstrating an energetic advantage of quantum systems over their classical counterparts, and further providing proof-of-concept groundwork for heat-management schemes in quantum technologies where waste heat generated during quantum operations could be converted into useful electrical energy.
