We have 39 detectors PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

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

Advanced vibration isolation and control for a large suspended optical cavity

The gravitational wave interferometer detectors are the most sensitive instrument in the world. They sense the position change of test masses due to the passing gravitational waves to the precision in the order of 10-20m!  The planned future detectors are aiming to improve the sensitivity 10-fold and broaden the sensitive frequency range.

Next generation single-photon avalanche diode for emerging quantum technology applications

We are seeing the second quantum revolution, bringing quantum theory out of the lab. The advantage of quantum theory is opening a huge range of application in many sectors such as environment, data security, telecommunication, defence and aerospace etc. Read more

Physics with intact protons detected way downstream of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider

There are wide-ranging PhD opportunities with the Birmingham ATLAS group, including analysis of Higgs, top and electroweak physics, construction of a state-of-the art upgraded tracking detector and operation and development of trigger electronics. Read more

Integration of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Flame Monitoring and Safety Enhancement in Industrial Settings

This research project presents an exceptional opportunity for individuals interested in harnessing the power of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance flame monitoring and safety protocols in industrial environments. Read more

Quantum phenomena and energy conversion in two-dimensional materials nanostructures

The new PhD project in fundamental and applied physics is announced at Lancaster University Quantum Technologie Centre (LQTC) https://www.lancaster.ac.uk/quantum-technology/research/quantum-nanomechanics/… Read more

PhD in Engineering - Chip Scale Optical Frequency Combs

The James Watt School of Engineering at the University of Glasgow and the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) are seeking a highly motivated graduate to undertake an exciting 3.5-year PhD project entitled “Chip Scale Optical Frequency Combs”. 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

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

Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence: Friends or Enemies?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems have become critical to safeguarding systems against cyber threats. However, the risk of their misuse necessitates the development of protective measures to prevent them from becoming enemies. Read more
