Doctor of Philosophy [Ph.D] (Physics)
Field of Study:
₹22 L/Yr
- We supervise MPhil and PhD students whose interests match the expertise we have in our four main research themes.
- Condensed matter and nanoscale physics
- We research electronic, optical, structural and magnetic properties of novel solid-state materials, particularly novel semi-conductor structures and nanostructured materials such as nanocrystals and nanowires. Theoretical studies use quantum mechanical approaches and involve massively parallel supercomputing.
- Our development of new approaches to quantum modelling is changing the size and complexity of systems that can be modelled. Experimental work takes place at synchrotron facilities in Europe and America and related work takes place with colleagues in the Emerging Technology and Materials (ETM) Group in the School of Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering.
- Biophysics
- Our research in biophysics explores the structure and function of cells with the aim of creating artificial life and building machines based on biological parts. Projects include protocell development and the construction of a cyborg robot. An understanding of biological physics is needed that uses techniques including single molecule manipulation, atomic force microscopy and scanning tunnelling microscopy.
- Astrophysics
- Galaxies and the interstellar medium, the source of the galactic magnetic field and its influence on the structure of the galaxy form the focus of our research in astrophysics. There is also interest in cosmology, particularly the early universe and its origin in the big bang.
- Ultrafast optics
- Our research focuses on coherent optical control of atomic collisions in ultracold gases by femtosecond laser light for studies of problems in fundamental physics, such as the measurement of time dependence of the fundamental constants of nature. We also research metrological protocols for characterisation of broadband light, specifically those relating to foundational aspects of quantum mechanics and its application.

Eligibility & Entry Requirement
Academic Eligibility:
- A 2:1 honours degree, or international equivalent, in a relevant subject.
- Newcastle also usually expect a master’s degree, or international equivalent, at merit or above. In addition to academic qualifications, they also value relevant work experience.
Indian Eligibility:
-
Typically Newcastle recognizes 60% from section 1 universities, 62% from section 2 universities and 65% from section 3 universities as compared to a 2.1 and 58% from section 1 universities, 60% from section 2 universities and 63% from section 3 universities as compared to a 2.2.
-
This can be in any of the following qualifications:
- Bachelor Degree
- Bachelor Pass or General degree in Arts, Science or Commerce
- Bachelor Special or Honours degree
- Bachelor degree in professional subjects
Along with the minimum eligibility requirements, tests required to study in the UK, international students hailing from non-English speaking countries need to prove English proficiency through IELTS/TOEFL/any equivalent test.
