  Nanomaterials as White Light Emitters for Low Cost Lighting
University of Bradford Faculty of Life Sciences
  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
  Dr S Hickey, Dr W Martin
Applications accepted all year round
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.

  Slow and structured light in nanophotonics
University of St Andrews School of Physics and Astronomy
  Dr S Schulz
Applications accepted all year round
Slow light waveguides have the potential to strongly enhance light matter interactions, leading to efficient non-linear optical processes, optical switches and optical modulators amongst other applications [1].

  Transcription factors mediating light input to the Arabidopsis circadian clock
Royal Holloway, University of London School of Biological Sciences
  Dr P Devlin
Applications accepted all year round
The circadian clock is tightly tied to the light environment. Transcriptional feedback loops are able to generate a self-sustaining rhythm of approximately 24 hours which impinges on almost every aspect of physiology in higher organisms.

  Unscrambling light for next generation imaging systems, College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences – PhD (Funded)
University of Exeter College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences
  Dr D Phillips, Dr S Horsley
Application Deadline: 31 December 2018
Imagine looking through a frosted glass window. the scene on the other side is distorted and the detail cannot be discerned. Now hold up a second piece of frosted glass in front of the first - suddenly you can see clearly through both as if they were transparent.
