Last chance to apply
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) - Physics-informed and physics-constrained machine learning for next generation imaging
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
Join a team of researchers from the University of Glasgow and the “big image data” company, Dotphoton. Read more
The physics and engineering of flowing suspensions
Suspensions of particles in liquid are found throughout nature and industry, for instance chocolate, toothpaste, slurries and ceramics. Read more
Next generation single-photon avalanche diode for emerging quantum technology applications
We are seeing the second quantum revolution, bringing quantum theory out of the lab. The advantage of quantum theory is opening a huge range of application in many sectors such as environment, data security, telecommunication, defence and aerospace etc. Read more

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) - Synthetic optical materials for photonic metasurfaces applications (STMicroelectronics and University of St Andrews)
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
While current progress of the research in metamaterials technology has produced many solutions for devices in imaging, sensing and analysis, at industrial level the most promising routes remain largely aligned to CMOS compatible manufacturing approaches. Read more
A study of Sensing and Wireless Communications
This project is to investigate novel techniques for sensing and achieving efficient wireless communication. To fulfil the needs of future communication networks, the study will explore both the optical and radio frequencies for simultaneous sensing and wireless communications. Read more
Advanced Free-Space Optical Communication for Reliable Connectivity
A reliable free-space optical communication (FSOC) system should be capable of error-free data transfer between two terminals irrespective of the channel conditions. Read more
Last chance to apply
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) - A study of Rydberg atom for sensing and communication applications (MBDA UK and University of Edinburgh)
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
A Rydberg atom possesses a very high dipole moment with valence electrons that are very loosely bound (quasi-free), leading to a highly sensitive response to an external electromagnetic (EM) field. Read more
Exploring bio-inspired collective light-matter interactions in the solid-state
Super- and sub-radiance are quintessential quantum effects of relevance across natural photosynthesis and quantum technologies. In this project we will create the first fully coherent, scalable, and controllable artificial platform for exploring, analysing and tailoring such effects in the condensed matter. Read more
Decision Support Models for Modern Insulations
Greenhouse gas emission reduction in the built environment requires lower U-Values for external building envelopes, the traditional insulation types may no longer be optimum solutions for new dwellings or refurbishment of the existing homes. Read more
EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Soft Matter for Formulation and Industrial Innovation (SOFI2 CDT)
20 fully funded, four-year PhD studentships are available in the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Soft Matter for Formulation and Industrial Innovation (SOFI2 CDT) commencing in September 2023, for graduates in the physical and biological sciences, mathematics and engineering. Read more
Strongly correlated states in designer two-dimensional moiré heterostructures
Two-dimensional semiconductors offer unique opportunities to engineer and tune the interactions between particles at the quantum level to give rise to emergent phases and states of matter. Read more
Fracture by design of confined architected materials
This research project aims to address pressing fundamental challenges in structural bonding and thereby propose innovative solutions to foster sustainable practices in construction and infrastructure, renewable energy sector, and automotive industry, etc. Read more
PhD Scholarship in deep learning for image reconstruction and analysis in astronomy and medicine
The Biomedical and Astronomical Signal Processing group (. BASP. ) at Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh (. HWU. ), headed by Professor Yves Wiaux, jointly with Edinburgh's prestigious Centre for Doctoral Training on Mathematical Modelling, Analysis and Computation. Read more
Witnessing the birth of a crystal by laser-induced nucleation
