Immediately available is a PhD scholarship in the research and development of intrinsic ferromagnetic semiconductor materials for spintronic device applications. Analogous to electronics, spintronics uses the magnetic moment of the electron, rather than the charge, to process and store information.

Immediately available is a PhD scholarship in the research and development of diamond lasers. We are using artificial diamonds to convert and tailor the light output from conventional laser sources, with a particular focus on creating versatile narrow-band and single-longitudinal-mode lasers for applications such as chemical detection and quantum control. We are funded in part by M Squared Lasers, a UK laser company, so that our research outcomes can be quickly translated to real-world applications. There will be opportunity to travel and collaborate with this partner.
