Funded Activity Summary
3D glass printing: the next step in advanced manufacturing. This project aims to establish the first 3D glass printing capability in Australia for academic and industrial research and development. This capability provides an opportunity to advance the field of 3D glass printing from modern art to the fabrication of glass components, with both high transparency and involving new structures not possible with any other technology. These 3D printed glass materials and structures are expected to revolutionise photonics and microfluidics devices by enabling new ways to harness light and fluidics control. The new glass materials generated with this infrastructure are envisioned to improve energy efficiency in buildings, develop biomedical probes for health science and novel sensing technology for national security, agriculture and environmental monitoring. This will keep Australia at the forefront of scientific research and development, specifically in biomedical devices, fibre optics, and analytical instrumentation.Funded Activity Details
