Synthetic Chemistry (materials science) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 43 Synthetic Chemistry (materials science) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Green methods to revalorise wastes: transformation into sustainable materials and chemicals

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Experimental Discovery of New Ionic Conducting Materials Towards Net-Zero Technologies

Materials that allow the rapid motion of ions are essential for the new energy technologies needed to meet the challenge of net zero, such as batteries, fuel cells and electrolysers for green hydrogen. Read more

EPSRC - Light-coupled NMR to design novel photo-driven chemistry and materials

Over the last decade, visible light-driven chemistry has come to the forefront of modern organic synthesis, chemical biology, and materials science, providing a powerful platform through which to rapidly construct new and complex molecules. Read more

High-throughput solid state synthesis of functional inorganic materials for net zero applications

The discovery of new functional materials to drive technologies for the net zero transition, such as batteries, solar absorbers, rare-earth-free magnets for wind power and a myriad of other unmet needs, is a scientific and societal grand challenge. Read more

Discovery of Functional Inorganic Materials for Net Zero Applications using High-Throughput Synthesis

This project will use high-throughput solid state synthesis methods developed in the group (Hampson 2023) to accelerate the discovery of new functional inorganic (oxide) materials for applications towards net zero technologies e.g. Read more

High Entropy 2D Materials for Efficient Water Splitting - Postgraduate Research Teaching Associate (PGRTA) Scholarship

We invite applications for a fully-funded Ph.D. position to conduct cutting-edge research in the field of high entropy 2D materials for water splitting, building upon our recent publications in the field (Chemistry of Materials 35 (19), 7904-7914; Advanced Science, 2204488). Read more

Developing Electrically-switchable Glazing for Electric Vehicles

Project description. Lancaster University and Jaguar Land Rover are pleased to offer a fully-funded 3.5-year PhD position focused on the development of electrically-switchable glazing for electric vehicles. Read more

Automated experimental functional materials discovery for net zero technologies

The discovery of materials that will drive technologies for the net zero transition, such as batteries, solar absorbers, rare-earth-free magnets for wind power and myriad other unmet needs, is a scientific and societal grand challenge that requires experimental realisation of materials in the laboratory. Read more

Computationally driving automated functional materials discovery for net zero technologies with machine reasoning and decision-making

This project, suited to a student with a Computer Science or Mathematics background, will formally define the nature and consequences of the decisions that need to be made in the automated workflow and identify both the optimal combination of existing methods and tools to accelerate discovery and the gaps in capability that currently exist.
