Optical Physics (edinburgh) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 18 Optical Physics (edinburgh) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) - Multiplexed fluorescent biosensors to profile infectious diseases (Bio-Techne and University of Edinburgh)

  Research Group: CDT in Applied Photonics
We will build a novel sensing toolbox alongside suitable analytical tools to image biomarkers of cell function in real time. We will prepare a new platform of multiplexed photonic biosensors that will be able to image pathogens (bacteria, virus) in infection models of increasing complexity. Read more

A study of Sensing and Wireless Communications

This project is to investigate novel techniques for sensing and achieving efficient wireless communication. To fulfil the needs of future communication networks, the study will explore both the optical and radio frequencies for simultaneous sensing and wireless communications. Read more

A multi-spectral single photon sensor for enhanced 3D vision

Autonomous systems such as self-driving cars are increasingly relying on LIDAR systems for robust environmental perception, with single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) sensors, which detect and time individual photons of light, being one of the key underlying technologies. Read more

Adaptive sensor fusion for optimised 3D sensing

Single-photon avalanche diodes (SPAD) enable the detection and timing of individual photons of light and have become a key technology in applications such as automotive LIDAR and biomedical imaging. Read more

Laser System Design for Digital Manufacturing

Laser System Design for Digital Manufacturing. The laser resonator in defence& security systems dictate the system design and is usually the highest cost component of the system. Read more

Laser Based Manufacturing of Precision Optical Systems

Laser Based Manufacturing of Precision Optical Systems. Manufacturing of lasers and similar high precision optical systems is challenging in terms of the very high precision and thermo-mechanical stability that is required whilst providing for active alignment processes. Read more

Single-photon depth imaging under extreme conditions

This PhD project will examine single-photon imaging in a number of extreme environments, including thorough atmospheric obscurants, scattering media and in extreme low-light environments. Read more

Nonlinear optics in time-varying dielectric media

This theoretical Project aims to study the generation of a new type of light waves emitted by materials the refractive index of which varies periodically and non-periodically in time. Read more
