ultrafast laser inscribed optical waveguide components for sensing in harsh environments of relevance to AWE. The project will be based within the Photonic Instrumentation Group (phi.eps.hw.ac.uk) at the Heriot Watt campus in Edinburgh but some trips to AWE at Aldermaston will be required for testing. The appointed individual will have the opportunity to gain expertise in areas including optics, instrumentation, and device simulation. This prestigious 4 year PhD studentship comes with a significantly enhanced stipend and ringfenced budget for travel.
