Optical Physics PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students

We have 183 Optical Physics PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students

Optomechanical Metasurfaces for Biophotonics Applications.

The Synthetic Optics group (https://synthopt.wp.st-andrews.ac.uk/) in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of St Andrews has a large portfolio of research projects aimed at designing and exploiting light matter interactions at the nanoscale. Read more

Technologies for optogenetic neural interfacing

The ability to express light-sensitive proteins (opsins) in neurons, in a genetically-targeted fashion, has helped transform our understanding of how the brain functions. 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

Optoelectronic neural probes for in vivo manipulation of neural circuits

Optogenetics has become a powerful tool in neuroscience to study cortical circuit function. It relies on light sensitive proteins (opsins) that act as light switches, turning on or off specific populations of neurons in the brain. Read more

Metasurface-enabled subwavelength flexible waveguide for THz nearfield microscopy and endoscopy

Join the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Birmingham for groundbreaking PhD research that aims to improve non-destructive testing technology! Terahertz (THz) is a rapidly expanding field across a myriad of disciplines such as physics, engineering, chemistry and biology. Read more

PhD in Quantum Technologies

  Research Group: School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering
Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD position, open to all nationalities, in areas related to quantum technologies, including quantum communication networks, quantum key distribution, and quantum computing. Read more

Physical Layer Security for Mobile Optical Wireless Communications Systems

  Research Group: School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering
Optical wireless communication (OWC) is a highly directive communication system. This directivity hinders its practical implementation in mobile applications. 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

Real-time gas sensing using terahertz quantum-cascade lasers

  Research Group: School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering
This project will develop fast detection systems to provide the first real-time gas sensing in the terahertz (THz) band of the electromagnetic spectrum. Read more
