Last chance to apply
Doctor of Engineering (EngD) - Next generation long range laser rangefinders based on single photon detectors and new laser technologies (Thales and Heriot-Watt University)
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
Laser Rangefinders are a key element of modern sensor systems and can range up to 20km with an accuracy of less than 1m. Thales UK produced the first in-service laser rangefinder in 1965, just a few years after the invention of the laser, and have been designing and manufacturing laser systems ever since. Read more
Novel concept of fibre laser development based on multicore fibre technology
Supervisory Team. Dr Yongmin Jung and Prof. David Richardson. Project description. Fibre lasers have no moving parts/mirrors in the light generating source and have emerged as the technology of choice for a wide range of industrial, medical and fundamental science applications. Read more
High-Power Laser Applications of Hollow Core Fibres
Supervisory Team. Prof. Francesco Poletti, Dr. Hans Christian Mulvad and Prof. David Richardson. Project description. Read more
Laser Driven Neutron Sources at High Repetition Rate
Despite the high demand for neutron sources in a wide range of applications from material science to health-care [1, 2], the number of accessible neutron sources has decreased in the last years due to the phasing out of nuclear research reactors. Read more
Novel laser plasma acceleration – making accelerators smaller, cheaper, better
Applications are invited for a fully funded studentship from Oct 2023 in laser-driven plasma wakefield acceleration (LWFA). Read more
Developing Terahertz Frequency Drivers for Novel Accelerators
Novel acceleration schemes, such as THz-driven acceleration, aim to drastically shrink the size, and cost of future particle accelerators compared to conventional radio-frequency (RF) technology [1,2]. Read more

Doctor of Engineering (EngD) - Novel laser designs to exploit low-cost-per-Watt pumping of Ti:sapphire for application in sensing, imaging, and precise timing technologies (Fraunhofer and University of Strathclyde)
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
This studentship will build on the synergies between the parallel programmes at Fh-CAP and the IoP. Read more
Hollow beam lasers and laser processing using ultrafast nanostructured optical components
Supervisory Team. Prof Andy Clarkson and Prof Peter Kazansky. Project description. Laser modes with a doughnut-shaped beam profile can have many unique properties, including axially-symmetric polarisation (azimuthal or radial) or orbital angular momentum. Read more
Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes
Description. Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes. A ring laser is a self-excited optical oscillator employing a cavity where the round trip path encloses a finite area. Read more
