We have 130 Quantum Mechanics PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students
Quantum Materials Physics and Machine Learning
Overview. A competitively funded PhD UK studentship is available in materials physics, focusing on computational quantum mechanics to discover and understand novel materials for critical applications such as energy storage, solar, and carbon capture. Read more
Defining the state-of-the-art in X-ray and electron spectroscopies for discerning the characteristic electronic structure of actinide materials
An EPSRC centre for doctorial training sponsored PhD studentship is available to undertake research in the field of actinide X-ray and electron spectroscopy in a collaborative project between AWE and two research groups at the University of Manchester. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Anatomy of Critical Unstable Qubits
The central objective of the project will be to systematically analyse in depth a novel class of unstable qubits, which were discovered recently by the Principal Supervisor* and are called Critical Unstable Qubits (CUQs). Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Search for dark-matter particles using novel quantum technologies
This project is seeking to address two of the most outstanding issues in our understanding of the universe. why is the universe dominated by matter without any significant anti-matter and what is the nature of dark-matter which is responsible for 85% of the mass in the universe, but is yet to be directly detected.

[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Atomically thin membranes for blue-energy applications
Blue energy refers to the generation of electricity through exploitation of the differences in salinity between freshwater and seawater. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Real-Time Sensitivity to Quantum Oscillations of Beauty Mesons
The LHCb experiment is one of the four large experiments on the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. LHCb is about to produce the largest sample of Beauty mesons ever recorded, as a result of a paradigm-changing upgrade to its data acquisition and processing system. Read more
Quantum metamaterials
Soft templating via lips cubic phases will be employed for the fabrication of novel 3D nanostructured metal and semiconductor materials with a gyroid symmetry… Read more
Quantum Thermoelectrics
This project focusses on enhancing thermoelectric materials for waste harvesting of waste heat using quantum technology. Thermoelectric (TE) materials are an important class of materials for power generation that can directly convert waste heat into electrical energy based on the Seebeck effect. Read more
