Barium Strontium Titanate Thin Films for Tunable Microwave Applications. Australian businesses rely on information and communications technologies (ICT) in order to remain competitive in the global economy. Over the last decade or so, ICT has also found applications in consumer devices, many of which are wireless. This has lead to strong growth in the market for such technologies. Barium strontium titanate (BST) devices can be used to enhance the efficiency and lower the cost of radio frequency ....Barium Strontium Titanate Thin Films for Tunable Microwave Applications. Australian businesses rely on information and communications technologies (ICT) in order to remain competitive in the global economy. Over the last decade or so, ICT has also found applications in consumer devices, many of which are wireless. This has lead to strong growth in the market for such technologies. Barium strontium titanate (BST) devices can be used to enhance the efficiency and lower the cost of radio frequency devices to make wireless technology more accessible for the Australian community. Additionally, BST devices can be applied for frequency agile applications, which are invaluable for the Australian defence sector.Read moreRead less

The proposed Material Characterisation Facility using non-destructive methods will be unique to Australia. Precise characterisation of advanced materials such as dielectrics and superconductors using the facility will progress emerging technologies within the electronic and communication research area. The inclusion of a microwave scanning test bed within the laboratory will allow engineers, scientists, biologists and medical scientists to safely detect the intrinsic electromagnetic properties of electronic materials and tumours in biological tissues or poor quality agricultural produce. This comprehensive material characterisation facility will therefore benefit the peoples of Australasia in many significant and diverse ways.Read moreRead less
