Funded Activity Summary

An integrated nanoscale fabrication, manipulation and characterisation facility. The fabrication of ordered structures at the nanometre scale is essential if the aspirations of nanotechnology are to be achieved. Understanding the fundamental nanoscience controlling the fabrication and operation of such devices is vital. The combination of instruments requested for this project will allow the construction of arrays of nanoparticles, their precise characterisation and the direct measurement of interpartice and intermolecular forces at the pN level. Parallel computational chemistry and state of the art experiments will lead to the optimised design of nanostructures that will be applied in diverse areas, including mineral processing, biosensors, photonics, magnetic storage and catalysis.
