P.H.D / M.PHIL PHYSICS POSTGRADUATE RESEARCH
The prestigious Physics and Materials Research Group encompasses experimental, computational and theoretical areas of physics, chemistry, engineering and mathematics. Our research is primarily focused on applied optics, complexity and nonlinear photonics, hydrogen storage, photovoltaics, functionalization of graphene, semiconductor materials and thin films.
A research degree offers you the flexibility to conduct your own research project under direct supervision of an academic member of staff. You can study towards a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) or Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
Current physics and materials research topics include:
- Applied optics, laser applications and theory
- Chemical physics
- Complexity, applied nonlinear science and metamaterials
- Energy and hydrogen storage
- Extreme conditions
- Magnetism and nanomaterials
- Materials characterization and modelling
- Structural analysis and functional materials
You will:
- Research a broad range of fields in physics and materials, including lasers, optics, energy storage and photovoltaics
- Undertake research around an area from your own profession and develop solutions that can be implemented in the workplace
- Earn a doctorate-level degree to take you further in your current career or provide a gateway into a research career
