This project aims to develop novel Dirac semimetal nanostructures and determine their structural and chemical characteristics to ultimately assemble high-performance devices. The growth of band-engineered nanostructures and understanding their evolution, fine structure and unique properties are key steps for developing high-performance nanostructure-based devices. The new knowledge and skills developed in this project will greatly enhance the knowledge base of nanoscience and nanotechnology, and will have a significant impact on practical applications of nanostructure-based devices. This project will underpin the development of next-generation electronic nanomaterials that will enhance the long-term viability of Australia’s high-technology industries.Read moreRead less

Transformational lighting: changing the way we live. This Fellowship aims to advance the science of ultrathin efficient lighting technologies based on low embedded energy organic light-emitting diodes (OLED). By creating innovative semiconductor materials and diode architectures that optimise each step in light generation—from charge injection, transport and capture to light emission—the project aims to deliver transformative OLED lighting that is more efficient than standard fluorescents by 50%. The intended outcomes of the project are design rules for OLED componentry, including thin, flexible architectures for deployment in a range of environments. The project would prototype the new technology at scale, demonstrating a large-area lighting module with power efficiency of 150 lm/W.Read moreRead less
