Theoretical Breakthroughs in Quantum Science: PhD Opportunity in Ion and Electron Trapping at Charles University, Prague

Dive into Quantum Frontiers 🌌. PhD Opportunity in Trapping and Cooling of Ions and Electrons at Charles University, Prague!🔬✨. We are offering a position of a PhD student in the theoretical part of an original and innovative project studying cold trapped ions and electrons (research group of Dr. Read more

Nonlinear optics in time-varying dielectric media

This theoretical Project aims to study the generation of a new type of light waves emitted by materials the refractive index of which varies periodically and non-periodically in time. Read more

Novel nanophotonic phenomena in near-fields: time and spatial structuring

The Novel Nanophotonic Phenomena team, led by Dr. Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño at King's College London, invites applications for a PhD position focused on the theoretical exploration of electromagnetic near-fields. Read more

Doctor of Engineering (EngD) - Next generation long range laser rangefinders based on single photon detectors and new laser technologies (Thales and Heriot-Watt University)

  Research Group: CDT in Applied Photonics
Laser Rangefinders are a key element of modern sensor systems and can range up to 20km with an accuracy of less than 1m. Thales UK produced the first in-service laser rangefinder in 1965, just a few years after the invention of the laser, and have been designing and manufacturing laser systems ever since. Read more

Theory of generation of bright attosecond pulses

The creation of the shortest duration, attosecond, light pulses has been celebrated by the Nobel Prize in Physics 2023 [1]. The application of such pulses increases the temporal resolution that physical processes, such as electronic dynamics in atoms, molecules and condensed matter, can be observed with. Read more

Polychromatic optical singularities

Starting from the early 1990s, a quiet revolution has been taking place in optics, coming from a growing realization that one can get a huge amount of information about the propagation of a beam of light by understanding the nature and position of the optical singularities in the beam. Read more

Attosecond physics in solids

High Harmonic Generation in Solids (HHG-S) was first observed in ZnO crystal [1] and GaSe semi-conductor [2]. Recent results show that HHG-S can reach XUV range [3] towards the production attosecond pulses from solids. Read more

Distributed Sensing in Complex Photonic Network Ensembles

Apply to pursue a PhD in the Optical Theory Group, led by Matthew Foreman, where you will explore optical and plasmonic properties of random complex networks and develop novel sensing algorithms. Read more
