PhD Scholarship in Quantum Microscopy of 2D Materials

PhD Scholarship in Quantum Microscopy of 2D Materials

Funded PhD scholarship aiming to develop and deploy quantum microscopes to explore magnetism in 2D materials, with a focus on future technologies.

This project aims to develop and apply quantum microscope techniques to image magnetism in 2D materials. Initially, the student will be involved in the experimental realisation of these quantum microscopes, learning or applying knowledge and skills in optics, quantum physics, and condensed matter physics. Secondly, the student will use this platform to interrogate magnetism in novel 2D magnetic materials.
