Predictable long-term care for dental implant maintenance
Applications are invited for a 3-year self-funded PhD Studentship to research antimicrobial coatings for implant abutments. These coated abutments will be part of a long-term care plan for dental implant maintenance. Read more
Development of ceramic thermal and environmental barrier coatings for high temperature applications
Research Group:
Coatings and Ceramics
Ceramic coatings are vital in high-temperature applications, especially in aero-engines and the power generation industry. These coatings increase the engine’s operating temperature to improve efficiency and reduce the engine’s environmental impact. Read more
Making High Efficiency Flexible Solar Cells
Perovskite based solar cells have the advantages of highly efficient conversion of sunlight into electricity. However, at present there are challenges in making solar cells from these materials. Read more
Resorbable antibacterial coatings for orthopaedic implants (NDORMS 2024/15)
Bacterial infections associated with orthopaedic implants are complex to treat and can result in severe complications for patients. Read more
Advanced Biomaterial for Preventing Catheter-Associated Infections
Urinary catheters are used as soon as a patient cannot control urine drain as a consequence of incontinence or urine retention. Read more
Going beyond the mass scale: Exploiting state-of-the-art instrumentation to add molecular structure to 3D mass spectrometry imaging
The Surrey Group have been active in secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) for over thirty years using the method to unravel the complexities of interface chemistry in adhesive bonds, organic coatings on metals and fibre composite materials. Read more
The role of ageing cutaneous fibroblasts in modulating melanocyte pigmentation
Research Group:
Centre for Skin Sciences
The aim of the project is to gain an understanding of how aged skin fibroblasts and their secretory phenotype contribute to ageing pigmentation and commonly associated disorders. Read more
Smart Surfaces for Anti-Scaling
Scaling and mineral deposits that occur due to dissolved materials in water is a problem in many industrial applications. How to remove this scaling without the use of harsh chemicals or methods to prevent it is crucial importance to both the environment and the economy. Read more
Nanomaterials as White Light Emitters for Low Cost Lighting
Research Group:
Chemistry and Biosciences
White-light emission (WLE) from semiconductor nanostructures is presently a research area of intense interest especially where the primary objective is to replace conventional light sources by environmentally friendly materials in order to minimize energy costs and therefore the global energy consumption for lighting.
