    Want to help rethink the foundation of the internet? Become a PhD student at DTU Electro

    Technical University of Denmark

    Kongens Lyngby, DenmarkDeadline 26 Oct 2026

    Want to help rethink the foundation of the internet? Become a PhD student at DTU Electro – it only takes 20 minutes! The internet is growing at an explosive pace - and so is its energy consumption. Yet light is still the most energy-efficient way to transmit information. Today, data is sent around the globe as billions of light pulses every second, generated by millions of individual lasers. We have shown that many of these lasers can be replaced by a single optical light source that emits a full rainbow spectrum of colours - and that each colour can act as its own “mini-laser”. In other words

    PhD scholarship in Quantum Photovoltaics in Twisted 2D Materials - DTU Electro

    Technical University of Denmark

    Kongens Lyngby, DenmarkDeadline 30 Oct 2026

    Are you interested in atomically thin materials and curious about how twisting and stacking them can create unconventional photovoltaic effects that emerge without conventional p–n junctions? Do you want to develop expertise at the intersection of 2D materials, nonlinear optics, nanofabrication, and photovoltaic device physics?

    PhD fellowship in Soft Matter physics and Food Science

    University of Copenhagen

    Copenhagen, DenmarkDeadline 1 Nov 2026

    The Department of Food Science and the Niels Bohr Institute invites applicants for a PhD fellowship in colloidal research in food science. The PhD project has the overall goal of describing the molecular structure of casein micelles through computational and experimental investigations, with focus on the role of κ caseins. The candidate will be part of the CaIFF center for the use of neutron for the investigation of colloids and interfaces in food science and pharmacy ( https://pharmacy.ku.dk/research/caiff/ ).

    PhD scholarship in Moiré and Patterned 2D Materials for Bandgap Engineering - DTU Physics

    Technical University of Denmark

    Kongens Lyngby, DenmarkDeadline 1 Nov 2026

    If you want to design the electronic properties of a material rather than simply measure them, this PhD puts the tools in your hands. When two-dimensional crystals are stacked with a controlled twist, or when a periodic pattern is imprinted into them, an artificial superlattice emerges in which the band structure can be reshaped and bandgaps opened by design, using a novel combination of 2D materials and freestanding oxide membranes.

    PhD scholarship in AI-Driven Optimization of Optical Links based on Nano-Lasers - DTU Electro

    Technical University of Denmark

    Kongens Lyngby, DenmarkDeadline 1 Nov 2026

    DTU Electro invites applications for a PhD position in AI-driven optimization of optical links based on nano-lasers, within the Villum Investigator program "Power-Efficient Fiber-Optic Communication" (POPCOM) and DNRF Center for NanoPhotonics (NANOPHOTON). The position focuses on developing signaling optimization frameworks to maximize spectral and power efficiency.

    PhD scholarship in theoretical chemistry, “Towards quantum-enhanced computational algorithms for discovering sustainable energy materials” - DTU Chemistry

    Technical University of Denmark

    Kongens Lyngby, DenmarkDeadline 6 Nov 2026

    The project focuses on the development of next-generation quantum-enhanced algorithms for predicting the electronic excited-state properties of organic molecules. By integrating quantum chemistry, quantum computing, and computational materials design, the project aims to enable the efficient screening and discovery of sustainable materials for solar energy conversion and other clean-energy technologies. The PhD project is a collaborative effort between Sonia Coriani (DTU Chemistry, principal supervisor), Piotr de Silva (DTU Energy Conversion and Storage, co-supervisor), and Achintya Kumar Dutt
