radiation detection PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 14 radiation detection PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Exploring single electron transistors for radiation detection

Single-electron quantum devices have potential use as radiation sensors for fundamental and applied science applications. We propose to develop arrays of graphene-based single-electron transistors that operate from deep cryogenic temperatures towards room temperature. Read more

PhD in Nuclear Physics

The University of Surrey is seeking an outstanding doctoral student candidate to join its nuclear physics group to investigate properties of novel radiation detectors for applications in nuclear science and radiation detection. Read more

A New Scintillator Gamma-Ray Spectrometer for the RIBF facility

  Research Group: Nuclear Physics
In the nuclear physics group at York, we focus on carrying out world-leading research aimed at the study of the fundamental properties of atomic nuclei and the origin of the elements in the cosmos, employing and developing state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical techniques. Read more

Optical Levitation in Hollow Core Fibres

This project will explore the radiation pressure of laser light, to levitate, guide and accelerate particles within novel hollow core fibres (HCFs), targeting both fundamental studies and new applications such as radiation sensing and hypervelocity particle acceleration. . Read more

Uncertainty-aware safe leak mapping for industrial inspection

This studentship is offered by the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence for Net Zero (RAINZ CDT) which is a partnership between three of the UKs leading universities (University of Manchester, University of Glasgow and University of Oxford). Read more

Imaging with AI Integration for Early and Continuous Health Diagnostics and Monitoring (Ref: FP-BS-2025)

Why this research matters. Cancer remains the leading cause of death globally. Early detection is critical to improving survival rates, but traditional diagnostic methods such as CT and MRI are costly, inaccessible in underserved areas, and pose health risks due to ionising radiation. Read more

Fully-funded PhD Studentship in Automated Beta-emitting Radioisotope Identification and Monitoring in Boreholes

Proposed here is the development of an automated detection and fingerprinting method using machine learning and spectra unfolding techniques for the real-time, in-situ monitoring and determination of weak beta-emitting radionuclides found in groundwater around nuclear sites without the need for sampling. Read more

Precision spectroscopy of positronium and tests of fundamental physics

Since the standard Model predicts that the Big Bang should have created equal amounts of matter and antimatter, the observation that the Universe is essentially devoid of any significant quantities of antimatter is something of a mystery. Read more

PhD in Electrical Engineering - High sensitivity GaN based THz detectors for imaging applications

Start Date. 1st October 2025 . The School of Engineering of the University of Glasgow is seeking a highly motivated graduate to undertake an exciting 3.5-year PhD project to work on the fabrication and characterisation of GaN based THz detectors. . Read more

Low cost acoustic camera designs and algorithms for tracking swarms of drones / UAVs (Ref: AACME-24-033)

Tracking and detection methods for UAVs and drones typically involve human in the loop, with technology including long range radar, short range radar, cameras, infra-red camera, RF communication technology and acoustics. Read more

Mixed Field Neutron and Gamma Ray Sensors for Precision Farming

Precision agriculture, a data-driven approach to farming, relies on accurate and timely information about soil properties. Neutron and gamma ray sensing offers a non-destructive and in-situ method to measure soil moisture, density, and elemental composition. Read more
