Dhiman holds the professorship for Physical Chemistry of Supramolecular Systems at JGU and is affiliated with the Max Planck Graduate Center. Her group uses single-molecule and super-resolution fluorescence microscopy (SMLM/PAINT-type methods) to watch synthetic supramolecular polymers assemble, exchange monomers and age in real time -- i.e. applying the biological super-resolution toolkit to non-biological self-assembling matter, and toward bioinspired/adaptive systems that behave like living materials. Relative to the established NV-ensemble quantum-sensing playbook (DEER, nanoscale NMR, T1 relaxometry at pT/sqrt(Hz) ensemble sensitivity), this is a technique-driven inclusion: the emphasis is squarely on pushing spatial and temporal resolution of dye-based imaging past the ensemble limit, and it is a newer group where a postdoc would have room to shape the direction.

Develops scalable, atomically-precise low-dimensional (2D/1D/0D) materials and heterostructures, focusing on single-photon emitters and spin defects in semiconductors for quantum sensing and molecular-based qubits.

Monzel holds the biophysics/biophotonics professorship at Stuttgart's 2nd Institute of Physics. The group develops multiparametric imaging spectroscopy and high-resolution light microscopy -- combining super-resolution, fluorescence-fluctuation and lifetime-resolved methods -- to read out several observables at once in living cells and in biomimetic model membranes, and pairs this with magnetic nanoparticles used to apply and sense forces on cell-surface receptors (magnetogenetic control of signalling). Single-molecule analysis inside cells is an explicit focus. Relative to the established NV-ensemble quantum-sensing playbook (DEER, nanoscale NMR, T1 relaxometry at pT/sqrt(Hz) ensemble sensitivity), this is the closest thing at Stuttgart to a natural biological host for in-cell quantum sensing: the group already does single-molecule-resolution live-cell imaging and already works with magnetic nanoparticles, so nanodiamond relaxometry/thermometry would slot in with the readout stack it already runs. Relatively new appointment -- good moment to join.

Pop's group builds superconducting quantum circuits from high-kinetic-inductance materials, above all granular aluminium, and uses them as detectors. The distinctive capability is single-microwave-photon detection and QND photon counting with superinductor-based devices -- an extremely low dark-count, quantum-limited receiver in the GHz band -- plus fluxonium-type qubits, quantum-limited and travelling-wave parametric amplification, and studies of quasiparticle and noise mechanisms that set coherence limits. The direct sensing payoff is dark-matter search: a photon counter that beats the standard quantum limit lets a haloscope integrate far faster than an amplifier-based readout. Relative to the established NV-ensemble quantum-sensing playbook (DEER, nanoscale NMR, T1 relaxometry at pT/sqrt(Hz) ensemble sensitivity), this is the microwave/superconducting counterpart to an NV ensemble -- same objective (detect an absurdly weak field), different physical platform and roughly opposite temperature regime. A recent addition to Stuttgart's 1st Institute of Physics, so the lab is being built out now, which usually means unusual latitude for a postdoc.

Builds neutral-atom-array platforms coupled to optical cavities to explore nonlocal entanglement for modular fault-tolerant quantum computing and distributed quantum sensor networks; also works on quantum error correction and quantum foundations.

Tesi leads an independent group at Stuttgart's Institute of Physical Chemistry working on optically addressable molecular spin systems -- the effort to reproduce the NV centre's defining trick (optical initialization and readout of a spin) in a designed molecule, where chemistry rather than crystal growth sets the properties. Work spans photogenerated spin-correlated radical pairs, ODMR on molecular chromophore-radical systems, spin-phonon coupling and coherence engineering, and embedding of molecular spins in films and matrices. Relative to the established NV-ensemble quantum-sensing playbook (DEER, nanoscale NMR, T1 relaxometry at pT/sqrt(Hz) ensemble sensitivity), this is arguably the most direct molecular analogue in the search: the target sensitivity and readout protocols are borrowed straight from NV ensembles, but the emitter is synthetic. Newer, smaller group; good fit for a postdoc who wants to own a direction rather than inherit one.
