Structure of Epitaxial Semiconductor Quantum Dots. Epitaxially grown semiconductor quantum dots have received extensive attention in recent years due to their potential applications in electronic and optoelectronic devises. However, the quality of current grown quantum dots is still very far from that required for real device applications due to a lack of detailed knowledge of their nanostructures. This project aims to combine the strength of growing semiconductor quantum dots at Fudan Universit ....Structure of Epitaxial Semiconductor Quantum Dots. Epitaxially grown semiconductor quantum dots have received extensive attention in recent years due to their potential applications in electronic and optoelectronic devises. However, the quality of current grown quantum dots is still very far from that required for real device applications due to a lack of detailed knowledge of their nanostructures. This project aims to combine the strength of growing semiconductor quantum dots at Fudan University and the world-class characterisation facilities (advanced transmission electron microscopy) at the University of Queensland to actively explore optimum paths for epaxially growing device-quality semiconductor quantum dots.Read moreRead less

The proposed research will significantly advance knowledge by creating new analytical and numerical methods for tackling complex nonlinear control problems arising in many applications. The study's outputs will lead to a deeper understanding of fundamental issues in mathematical modelling. Collaboration with renowned researchers will further improve Australia's standing in the international research community. Also their visits may further promote research both within and outside the host institution. In particular, lectures and seminars that they will deliver will be transmitted to Australian universities participating in the Access Grid Room Project.Read moreRead less
Semiconductor Photonic Crystal Devices. Photonic crystals will be a key element of future all-optical ultra-highspeed photonic integrated circuits for telecommunications and signal processing. This project will pioneer new structures capable of manipulating light on integrated photonic chips, based on nano-scale features in semiconductors. This will have a significant impact on Australia's photonics industry.
Digital Imagery for Building 3D City Models. The project will investigate the application of digital photogrammetric imagery, and primarily high-resolution satellite imagery for the creation of visually realistic 3D city models. Virtual reality computer models of urban scenes find application in urban planning, facilities management, engineering and even virtual tourism. Building upon recently initiated collaborative research, the project aims to develop improved methods and procedures for autom ....Digital Imagery for Building 3D City Models. The project will investigate the application of digital photogrammetric imagery, and primarily high-resolution satellite imagery for the creation of visually realistic 3D city models. Virtual reality computer models of urban scenes find application in urban planning, facilities management, engineering and even virtual tourism. Building upon recently initiated collaborative research, the project aims to develop improved methods and procedures for automated, image-based object reconstruction to support the generation of metrically accurate 3D computer models of buildings and the built environment.Read moreRead less
Diamond Based Quantum Information Processing. The explosive growth in ideas for applications of quantum mechanics to practical devices for information processing has been a worldwide phenomenon of the past 4 years. A leading material which promises many of the desirable quantum properties is diamond. In collaboration with our Israeli colleagues we will seek to attain the glittering prize of constructing diamond devices that will absorb, store and re-emit single light-photons with revolutionary ....Diamond Based Quantum Information Processing.
