Plasma Propulsion for Space Applications
The University of Auckland is conducting research into electric propulsion systems for small spacecraft. Read more
A Molecular Machine-Based Approach Towards Artificial Photosynthesis
A fully funded PhD scholarship is available in the group of Dr Christopher B. Larsen at the School of Chemical Sciences, University of Auckland, on the topic “A Molecular Machine-Based Approach Towards Artificial Photosynthesis”. Read more
Spacecraft Trajectory Optimisation
The University of Auckland is developing a research programme in low delta-v spacecraft trajectory optimisation. We are looking for a PhD candidate to continue work in this area and develop our existing algorithms. Read more
Space Optical Communications
The University of Auckland is developing a research programme in optical communications between ground and orbiting satellites. We are looking for a PhD candidate to adapt an existing optical telescope, and build optical instrumentation to demonstrate optical communications from satellites in low earth orbit. Read more
Optical Frequency Combs
Optical frequency combs provide an ultra-precise spectroscopic ruler that allows the measurement of optical frequencies with unprecedented levels of accuracy. Read more
Photonic simulators of quantum mechanics and solid-state physics
Photonic systems offer a highly-controllable platform for the exploration of universal wave phenomena. In this PhD project, you will experimentally and theoretically investigate the use of optical fibre resonators for simulating dynamical wave phenomena at the frontiers of quantum and mechanics and solid-state physics. Read more
Optical coherence tomography (OCT)
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a real time, non-invasive and non-contact imaging modality for translucent and transparent tissue capable of providing morphological images at the micron scale resolution at more than 1mm depth penetration. Read more
Clean synthesis of bio-based organophosphorus compounds
We have fully funded PhD scholarship and we would like the student to start as soon as possible. The PhD project is focused on the synthesis of bio-based organophosphorus compounds from the unique biomass available in New Zealand. Read more
Topological materials and coupled superfluids (theory and computation)
The rich physics of spinor quantum gases with internal coupling makes them ideal platforms for emulating fundamental physical processes and for realizing atomtronic analogs of solid-state devices. Read more
Optical tweezers
Optical tweezers use highly focused light to manipulate tiny particles. The Biophotonics laboratory in the physics department is developing optical tweezers for the manipulation of bacteria. Read more
Using optical coherence tomography and vibrometry to understand hearing in crustaceans
Crustaceans use sound for many different life history strategies. Over the last decade many different crustaceans, such as paddle crabs and lobsters, have been described to produce sounds. Read more
Use it or lose it: what determines the regulation mode of a given gene?
All organisms must tightly control gene expression. In bacteria, gene regulation is mediated by either an activator or a repressor which binds DNA to turn a gene on or off, respectively. Read more
Modeling cartilage degeneration using imaging data
We have an exciting new PhD study funded by a Royal Society NZ Marsden grant. The study will reveal how subtle sub-micron scale collagen network changes, in early degeneration of soft tissues, may be related to macro length scale non-invasive tissue imaging using optical coherence tomography (OCT).
