Solid State Physics (self) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 21 Solid State Physics (self) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Programming Colloidal Self-Assembly for Advanced Materials

A PhD place is available with Dr Dwaipayan Chakrabarti in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham on a project themed on designing and developing colloidal advanced materials, using high-performance computing, underpinned by theories of statistical mechanics and wave propagation in periodic structures. Read more

Hybrid Technologies for Battery Thermal Management Using Smart Materials

Electric vehicles (EVs) are powered by lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with many advantages such as high specific energy, long cycle life, wide range of operating temperature, and low self-discharge rates. Read more

Atomistic Simulations of Surface Chemistry underpinning the Atomic-Scale Processing of Materials for AI-driven Nanoelectronics Applications

Project description. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) and atomic layer etching (ALE) are crucial technologies in semiconductor processing, especially as nanoelectronics devices become smaller and more complex. Read more

Studying disordered materials by 3D electron diffraction

Structural disorder in materials can be an important method of understanding their properties for a wide range of applications. However detecting and modelling disorder at the nanoscale can be a difficult undertaking. Read more

Photo-chemical adaptive integrated circuits for next generation neuromorphic computing

Neuromorphic computing, i.e., an approach to information processing inspired in basic morphology and working principles of the brain, is a rapidly growing area of research due to the availability of high-speed hardware and need for artificial intelligence (AI) systems across a wide range of applications. Read more

Metamaterials PhD Studentship - 2024/25 entry

Exeter's Centre for Metamaterials Research and Innovation (CMRI) is a community of academic, industrial, and governmental partners that harnesses world-leading research excellence from theory to application, and enables simulation, measurement, and fabrication of metamaterials and metamaterial-based devices.

Control of terahertz lasers with sound

  Research Group: School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering
Applicants are sought for a funded PhD position investigating the acoustic control of terahertz frequency quantum cascade lasers (THz QCLs). Read more

Novel 2D-crystals for the hydrogen economy

Graphene represents a conceptually new and large class of materials that are one or a just few atoms thick. These materials are completely impermeable to all gases at ambient conditions, but, unexpectedly, some are highly permeable to protons, nuclei of hydrogen atoms. Read more

PhD in Chemistry - Amorphous Aggregates and Non-Classical Crystal Nucleation

You are invited to apply for a fully funded 3.5 year PhD position in the School of Chemistry, available to start on 1 October 2024 in the Ultrafast/slow Chemical Physics group at the University of Glasgow (https://www.wijnne.com/), with the aim to understand the role of amorphous structures in crystal nucleation. Read more

Multimodal imaging and its applications

Information on this PhD research area can be found further down this page under the details about the Widening Participation Scholarship given immediately below. Read more

Point Defect Characterization in Energy Materials

Vacancy related point defects are of fundamental importance for a diverse range of energy materials, from fuel cell materials to fusion reactor wall materials. Read more

Characterization of Technologically Relevant Point Defects in Piezoelectric Oxide Materials

Oxide materials with a perovskite, or related, structure remain of primary importance as piezoelectric materials. They are used in applications ranging from medical ultrasound transducers to fuel injectors for diesel engines. Read more

Characterization of Vacancy-Related Point Defects in Nuclear Materials

The importance of both Fusion and Fission Nuclear Energy Technologies is growing. The materials used must be resilient to high levels of typically neutron and gamma-ray radiation. Read more

Altermagnetism. A new phase for Spin

Recently, there have been observations in which phenomena typical of ferromagnets are accompanied by order that would normally be associated with antiferromagnets: Altermagnetism. Read more
