Summary
Cryogenic Scanning Microwave Measurement Facility for Quantum Materials. This proposal addresses a major experimental capacity gap in Australian infrastructure for research and development of novel electronic materials and nanoscale quantum devices for future technologies. It will establish Australia's first non-contact, non-destructive, cryogenic scanning microwave microscopy facility for advanced materials characterization enabling new studies of these materials in the 2 to 300 Kelvin temperat ....Cryogenic Scanning Microwave Measurement Facility for Quantum Materials. This proposal addresses a major experimental capacity gap in Australian infrastructure for research and development of novel electronic materials and nanoscale quantum devices for future technologies. It will establish Australia's first non-contact, non-destructive, cryogenic scanning microwave microscopy facility for advanced materials characterization enabling new studies of these materials in the 2 to 300 Kelvin temperature range. The facility will provide crucial new information for the development of future quantum materials, enhancing our international competitiveness in the development of next-generation electronic materials and device technologies.Read moreRead less
Understanding the role of catalysts in the epitaxial growth of multinary III-V semiconductor nanowires and nanowire heterostructures. This project will address a bottle-neck problem in the nanowire community. The outcomes of this project will provide new knowledge in nanoscience and guidelines for the development of nanowire-based nanodevices and nanosystems. This is strategically important to place Australia at the forefront of developments on nanoscience and nanotechnology.
New approach to control grain boundary behaviour in superconducting thin films. This project aims at finding a new approach to overcome the cornerstone problem of high temperature superconducting films through new design, magnetic interactions, and real-time magnetic flux visualisation at the quantum level. The expected ultimate achievement would be to develop new technologies, delivering the best performance of the films.
