Optical Physics PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in the UK

We have 240 Optical Physics PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in the UK

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

Doctor of Engineering (EngD) - Advance diversity techniques for underwater optical communication and sensing (Fraunhofer and University of Strathclyde)

  Research Group: CDT in Applied Photonics
The emergence of remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), combined with the expansion of underwater infrastructure has led to a huge opportunity for underwater optical communication and sensing. Read more

Doctor of Engineering (EngD) - uLED-based lab-on-chip platform (Fraunhofer and University of Strathclyde)

  Research Group: CDT in Applied Photonics
Detection and identification of various analytes is crucial in applications spanning through bio-medicine, defence and security, environmental monitoring and various others. Read more

Developing novel light-induced in-situ Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) methods

Light-induced in-situ Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) studies are a growing field in both continuous wave and pulsed EPR. It can be used to monitor photoactivated chemical and biochemical reactions involving radical reagents, projects or intermediates. Read more

Novel subsurface Raman microscopy technologies to enable the development of next-generation drug and implant therapies

Start date. September 2024. Duration. 3.5 years. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful label-free analytical technique that measures the molecular composition of tissue by using light to excite molecular vibrations in the sample and generate Raman scattered photons. Read more
