The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Summary
Characterisation of infrared imaging technologies. This project aims to establish a facility for two-dimensional (2D) infrared sensor array testing and prototyping. Systematic characterisation and prototyping of 2D imaging arrays is vital in showcasing and realising Australia's innovation and research investment in photodetector technologies. This facility will enable research on 2D imaging arrays, such as pixel yield and cross-talk, device reliability physics, failure mechanisms, noise and long ....Characterisation of infrared imaging technologies. This project aims to establish a facility for two-dimensional (2D) infrared sensor array testing and prototyping. Systematic characterisation and prototyping of 2D imaging arrays is vital in showcasing and realising Australia's innovation and research investment in photodetector technologies. This facility will enable research on 2D imaging arrays, such as pixel yield and cross-talk, device reliability physics, failure mechanisms, noise and long-term stability. The facility will demonstrate Australia's innovative imaging technologies, applicable in science, industry, defence and security, attracting interest from both Australian and international industries.Read moreRead less
High speed, high sensitivity thermal imaging. This project aims to increase sensitivity-speed product of thermal imagers by the novel using porous materials. Increased sensitivity-speed products will improve thermal imager effectiveness in motion capture and high resolution remote sensing applications. To develop these porous materials, this project will study the interdependence of optical, mechanical, thermal and electrical properties at the micro- and nano-scale. It will create a narrowband r ....High speed, high sensitivity thermal imaging. This project aims to increase sensitivity-speed product of thermal imagers by the novel using porous materials. Increased sensitivity-speed products will improve thermal imager effectiveness in motion capture and high resolution remote sensing applications. To develop these porous materials, this project will study the interdependence of optical, mechanical, thermal and electrical properties at the micro- and nano-scale. It will create a narrowband resonant cavity detector which increases sensitivity and provides spectral filtering for remote sensing and gas detection. This technology is built on a low-cost scalable all-silicon platform. This technology could benefit road safety, border security, defence, aerospace, remote sensing and industrial monitoring.Read moreRead less
