Nanophysics & Soft Matter Group


pagetitle-crest Welcome

Nanophysics and Soft Matter is a large, dynamic research group, with over 45 academic staff, researchers and students. We have a diverse range of research interests, covering techniques from neutron diffraction to optical tweezers, and studying systems from novel glasses to living cells.


pagetitle-crest Guide Access to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Research Equipment

EPSRC have provided support to enable access to state-of-the art nanoscience and nanotechnology equipment. In Nanoscience & Quantum Information Centre in Bristol, we are able to provide guided access with full support including travelling expense and relevant consumables for high-speed AFM and photonic force microscopy. For more information and contact details go to the Guide Access website.


pagetitle-crest Bristol Centre for Functional Nanomaterials

The new EPSRC-funded Doctoral Training Centre at Bristol is heavily associated with the Nanophysics and Soft Matter Group. The Centre is now open for applications for 4-year PhDs in the area of nanomaterials. For more information and registration details go to the BCFN website.

Nanophysics and Soft Matter Collage

pagetitle-crest Centre for Nanoscience & Quantum Information

The group has strong ties to the new Centre for Nanoscience and Quantum Information being built adjacent to the H.H. Wills Physics Laboratory, and will soon be making use of the state-of-the-art "low noise" laboratories located in the centre.
