[交流] 澳洲 University of Adelaide IPAS 中心PhD招生

澳洲 University of Adelaide IPAS 中心PhD招生

The Institute for Photonics & Advanced Sensing (IPAS) is seeking highly motivated science or engineering graduates to commence their PhD studies in the world leading research institute. This PhD project is part of a larger research project funded by the Australian Research Council. The project will create next-generation nanotechnology-based photonic devices by embedding functional nanoparticles into glass materials. Nanoscale materials offer unique properties, e.g., extremely high optical nonlinearity, broad and intense luminescence that can be tailored via the nanocrystal size, and enhanced rare earth upconversion emission. Via embedding these nanocrystals into glass, the extraordinary properties of these nanocrystals can be exploited in a bulk, macroscopic material that can be processed into optical fibres and waveguides, which can harness the nanoscale properties in practical devices. This new approach opens up a route to tailor the nanotechnology to the real world. The project is also open to explore potential applications of the novel nanomaterials and fibres in fibre sensing, concentrated solar cells, fibre lasers and waveguides.

The successful applicants will be supervised by researchers globally acknowledged as leaders in their areas and have access to state-of-the-art facilities, equipment and resources. The PhD candidates will be part of a research institute renowned for excellence, and the research projects will be undertaken in brand-new building (officially open in July 2013 with $100 million investment). The PhD candidates will be strongly supported for presenting their research results at national and international conferences. As IPAS supports commercialisation, the PhD candidates will be equipped with training, knowledge and skills needed in industries.

Successful applicants should possess a first class honours or master degree in chemistry, materials science, physics, photonics, or engineering, coupled with a strong desire to pursue groundbreaking research and working with the international team at IPAS. Applicants must have, or expect to obtain, a PhD scholarship ($25,392 in 2014). We are happy to offer top-up scholarships valued at up to $5k p.a. on top of the scholarships provided by the Federal Government, the University of Adelaide, or the Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC).

Please forward you expression of interest including a CV to A/Prof. Heike Ebendorff-Heidepriem (heike.ebendorff@adelaide.edu.au). CSC scholarship applicants are also welcome to contact Jiangbo (Tim) Zhao (tim.zhao@adelaide.edu.au).
