Optical Physics (optical) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 164 Optical Physics (optical) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Developing optical beamshaping approaches for optical trapping and optical tweezering of aerosols

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

Polychromatic optical singularities

Starting from the early 1990s, a quiet revolution has been taking place in optics, coming from a growing realization that one can get a huge amount of information about the propagation of a beam of light by understanding the nature and position of the optical singularities in the beam. Read more

Space Optical Communications

The University of Auckland is developing a research programme in optical communications between ground and orbiting satellites. We are looking for a PhD candidate to adapt an existing optical telescope, and build optical instrumentation to demonstrate optical communications from satellites in low earth orbit. Read more

PhD scholarship in integrated blue optical phased array on thin-film lithium niobate platform for underwater optical communication - DTU Electro

The Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) is defined as a worldwide network of smart interconnected underwater objects, poised to revolutionize a number of related technologies including ocean monitoring observatories, underwater exploration and resource exploitation, disaster prediction and prevention, aquaculture, and defense/security.
