  Quantum nonlinearities in dielectric nanoparticles
University of Strathclyde Department of Physics
  Dr F Papoff, Prof G-L Oppo
Applications accepted all year round
We focus on new nonlinear regimes with input powers so low that they enable all-optical processing and the exploitation of the fundamental advantages of quantum technologies at the nanoscale.

  Non—invasive instrumentation development for particle accelerators on the basis of Cherenkov diffraction radiation
Royal Holloway, University of London Department of Physics
  Dr P Karataev
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Cherenkov diffraction radiation appears when a charged particle moves in the vicinity of and parallel to a dielectric interface. The intensity is proportional to the length of the radiator.
