Summary
Integrated Tip-Enabled Nanofabrication and Characterisation at Atomic Scale. This project aims to establish the most advanced all-in-one multifunctional system going beyond the best system in the world. This facility is expected to combine tip-enabled nanofabrication, imaging, photo-/electrochemical, and electromechanical measurement to realise atomically precisely controlled nanofabrication, in-situ imaging, and real-time measurement of single active sites in micro and nanoscale devices.The pro ....Integrated Tip-Enabled Nanofabrication and Characterisation at Atomic Scale. This project aims to establish the most advanced all-in-one multifunctional system going beyond the best system in the world. This facility is expected to combine tip-enabled nanofabrication, imaging, photo-/electrochemical, and electromechanical measurement to realise atomically precisely controlled nanofabrication, in-situ imaging, and real-time measurement of single active sites in micro and nanoscale devices.The proposed facility features high-quality measurements in an unmatched spatial and temporal range, allowing studying physical and chemical phenomena that are difficult to detect using conventional methods. The proposed integrated system will be the first of its kind in Australia. Read moreRead less
Light Powered Materials for Producing Chemical Fuels. This project aims to develop a hybrid, solar-powered catalytic material for the manufacture of liquid hydrocarbon chemicals, without consuming external heating. The key concept is to transform hydrogen and carbon monoxide into long-chain hydrocarbons over hybrid materials that can convert light energy into heat and simultaneously catalyze the chemical transformation. Investigations on the relations between material synthesis, nanostructures, ....Light Powered Materials for Producing Chemical Fuels. This project aims to develop a hybrid, solar-powered catalytic material for the manufacture of liquid hydrocarbon chemicals, without consuming external heating. The key concept is to transform hydrogen and carbon monoxide into long-chain hydrocarbons over hybrid materials that can convert light energy into heat and simultaneously catalyze the chemical transformation. Investigations on the relations between material synthesis, nanostructures, and performance of the new catalysis processes will be conducted using experiments and theoretical computation. Expected outcomes include low cost and efficient materials for solar-to-fuel conversion, will provide benefits to low-carbon living, new clean energy resource and environmental protections.Read moreRead less
