Physics Master's

UNT's Master of Science in Physics offers graduate students the opportunity to work with state-of-the-art equipment in modern research laboratories, such as:

• Ion Beam Modification and Analysis Laboratory, containing four electrostatic accelerators and ancillary equipment to support studies of materials modification and analysis by ion beams
• Optical Micro/Nanofabrication Laboratory, with instrumentation for development and fabrication of photonic and plasmonic devices and other nanophotonic structures
• Precision Atomic Physics and Laser Laboratory, equipped for the development of precision laser light sources and their application to fundamental tests of quantum electrodynamics
• Solid State Physics Laboratory, which is equipped for nanostructure synthesis and characterization and the development and study of nanoscale device applications
• Ultrafast Spectroscopy and Photonics Laboratory, a laser-based laboratory where femtosecond pulsed lasers and continuous wave lasers are used to study materials properties
• Computational Laboratory, a computer-based laboratory for the design, simulation, and calculation of materials structure and property.
• Astrophysics Laboratory, which studies the physics in the space such as galaxies and universe evolution.
• Student Research Laboratory, dedicated student labs equipped with a variety of instruments for materials characterization and simulations.

In addition, students have access to campus research facilities such as:

• Materials Research Facility (MRF), equipped with an extensive suite of instruments for micro and nano characterization of materials and a Nanofabrication Analysis and Research Facility with a clean room for synthesis, processing and testing of materials and devices.
• TALON, a high-performance cluster computing facility configured with 224 nodes and operating at speeds up to 20 teraflops
