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.

Vision is probably our most important sense. Vision starts in the retina, the light-sensitive tissue lining the back of the eye. It is a well-layered structure with synaptic (connections of neurons) and nuclear (cell bodies) layers. Read more
This PhD project weaves together film, ecology, and light, by addressing light as the filmic substance in the context of ecological discourse. Read more
This PhD position focuses on the estimation of available energy in ambient light energy harvesting systems. Ambient light energy harvesting is an attractive solution as light is commonplace in many IoT applications. Read more
Many important reactions and processes in chemistry and biochemistry are started by light. A photon of light interacts with a molecule, or part of a molecule, known as a chromophore generating an excited state in which an electron is promoted into a higher energy orbital. Read more
Project Overview. Campylobacter jejuni is a microaerophilic Gram-negative pathogen that causes human campylobacteriosis, one of the most widespread zoonotic enteric diseases worldwide. Read more
Broadcasters and streaming organisations are commissioning content with increasingly challenging acquisition specifications that extend our experiences into faster, smaller, more colourful, darker, and generally more immersive spaces. Read more
Many processes occurring on the nanoscale are fundamental for functional light-sensitive and light-driven systems that we encounter and apply in nanomaterials, optoelectronics and quantum nanophotonics, artificial photosynthesis, antimicrobial resistance and many other cutting-edge areas from quantum technologies to healthcare. Read more
Photosynthesis is the ultimate source of food and energy for almost all forms of life. Using sunlight as the energy input, photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere generating the oxygen and carbohydrate that support complex life. Read more
We welcome applications from candidates to work with our interdisciplinary and collaborative team on a project on the development of hybrid coatings for active corrosion protection of light alloys. Read more
This project will develop the scientific tools needed to understand the fundamental physical processes in next generation photonic materials and exploit those tools to advance our understanding of light-mater interactions in a range of semiconductor nanostructures, ranging from light harvesting photovoltaics to light-emitting diodes. Read more
Energy harvesting will play a central role to offset the variability of renewable energy sources and achieve decarbonisation in global economies. Small-scale… Read more
