Reconfigurable metamaterials for mmwave applications (S3.5-ELE-Ford)
Introduction. The demand for lightning-fast data rates in the era of 5G, 6G, and beyond is skyrocketing. To meet this challenge head-on, we are looking for talented engineers/physicists to carry out research in Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) and metasurfaces for mmwave applications. Read more

Microwave Metamaterials Using Additive Manufacturing Techniques (S3.5-ELE-Henthorn)
Project Overview. Future mobile communications systems, including 6G, will rely on control of the electromagnetic environment. This means that as well as controlling what signals are sent from a transmitter, how those waves travel through an environment can also be altered to maximise data rates and capacity. Read more
PhD in Electronic and Electrical Engineering - MEMS Gravity Gradiometers
Start date. 01 October 2025. Glasgow has pioneered the use of MEMS devices for the measurement of gravity after demonstrating the first gravimeter that could measure the Earth tides (the gravitational force of the moon orbiting the earth) using a MEMS devices [1][2]. Read more
PhD in Electronic and Electrical Engineering - A Chip-scale Optical Atomic Clock
Start date. 01 October 2025. The project aims to combining miniature diode lasers, photonic integrated circuits and MEMS vapour cells with atoms in a gas to develop a chip-scale optical atomic clock. Read more
PhD in Electronics and Electrical Engineering - Guiding and Trapping Cold Atoms using Photonic Integrated Circuits
Start date. 01 October 2025 (flexible). Cold atoms are produced by shining laser light of specific wavelengths onto atoms so that the momentum of the absorbed photons slows the atoms. Read more
Terahertz frequency devices for future communication systems
Research Group:
School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering
High data throughput wireless communication systems are central to our lives and livelihoods. Data traffic is increasing exponentially, with the fastest-growing part of this increase being on wireless channels, as mobile users increasingly make use of online services. Read more

New technologies for electronics fabrication in a time of unprecedented demand
Why is this research important?. The demand for electronics is unprecedented, with processors needed for consumer devices and cloud computing. Read more
Understanding Disordered Solid Electrolytes through Computer Simulation
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the University of Bath URSA competition, for entry in September 2025. Read more
Future Millimetre Wave RF Circuits and Systems
Research and design of RF systems and circuits continues to be a field where practitioners are in high demand and are setting the international direction of future communication technologies, such as for improving 5G and new 6G. Read more
Capillary pressure, relative permeability and wettability at critically-low saturated porous media (CRISP)
Darcy-scale theories of two-phase flow in porous media rely on two major constitutive equations; capillary-pressure- saturation and relative permeability-saturation equations. Read more
Benchmarking major element isotopic compositions of chondritic meteorites
Project Background. Primitive, so-called chondritic, meteorites provide a key, compositional estimate of the proto solar nebula. Planets, that grew from this nebular disk, are expected to inherit its bulk composition and so any observed differences might be attributed to processes involved during their growth (e.g. Read more
Information retrieval from room acoustic measurements
Acoustic measurements of rooms carry a lot of useful information regarding the room geometry, objects and furnishing, presence and movements of humans, and the atmospheric conditions and stability of the room environment. Read more
Integrated polysilicon photonics
Supervisory Team. Prof Anna Peacock, Prof David Thomson, Prof Harold Chong. Project Description. Silicon materials are synonymous with the microelectronics industry and, in particular, the processors used in everyday gadgets such as mobile phones, tablets, digital radios and televisions. Read more
