We have 9 Physics PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students in St Andrews
Single-molecule spectroscopy and super-resolution imaging of organic semiconductor materials
Organic semiconductors based on light-emitting conjugated polymers are attracting considerable interest in semiconductor physics and are emerging as exceptional 'plastic-like' materials for optoelectronic applications including displays, lasers and solar cells. Read more
Theory and Simulations of Space Weather in the Earth's Magnetosphere
The environment surrounding a planet dominated by its magnetic field (called the magnetosphere) shields the planet from the solar wind. Read more
Preparation and analytical characterisation of functional materials
We explore new chemistry and physics at small scales and apply this knowledge to realising advanced tools for materials sciences, the life sciences, and sensor technology. Read more
STM-induced electronic and structural excitations of fullerenes
Applications are invited for a talented PhD candidate to join our team at the University of St Andrews (Scotland, UK) working towards the understanding and development of multi-position molecular switches based on individual endohedral fullerene molecules and building on recent results with Li@C. Read more
Developing new computational tools for the next generation of structural imaging with single molecule and super resolution microscopy
Background. Super Resolution Microscopy (SRM) is a broad class of microscopy techniques collectively aimed at breaking the fundamental limit imposed on fluorescence imaging due to the diffractive nature of light. Read more
Probing electronic structure and many-body interactions in thin-film correlated oxides
As part of a generously-funded Leverhulme research project, we seek an ambitious and motivated PhD student to join a research initiative aimed at investigating how the electronic structure and collective states of thin-film correlated oxides evolve with direct control over their material composition. Read more
Advanced Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy – method development and applications
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is a magnetic resonance technique that is exclusively and exquisitely sensitive to unpaired electrons that are found in radicals and paramagnetic metal complexes. Read more

World-Leading Doctoral Scholarship in Geography and Sustainable Development and Earth Sciences: Groundwater under Antarctica: Impact of deep subglacial groundwater on Antarctic ocean circulation
The University of St Andrews is pleased to offer a full 3.5 year PhD scholarship funded by St Leonard's Postgraduate College, to support an exceptional student to start in September/October 2025 or January 2026. Read more
Investigation of the ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of halide perovskite semiconductors
1. Halide perovskite semiconductors possess many excellent optoelectronic properties making them suitable for a variety of devices such as solar cells, light-emitting diodes and photodetectors. Read more
