Summary
Integrated Tip-Enabled Nanofabrication and Characterisation at Atomic Scale. This project aims to establish the most advanced all-in-one multifunctional system going beyond the best system in the world. This facility is expected to combine tip-enabled nanofabrication, imaging, photo-/electrochemical, and electromechanical measurement to realise atomically precisely controlled nanofabrication, in-situ imaging, and real-time measurement of single active sites in micro and nanoscale devices.The pro ....Integrated Tip-Enabled Nanofabrication and Characterisation at Atomic Scale. This project aims to establish the most advanced all-in-one multifunctional system going beyond the best system in the world. This facility is expected to combine tip-enabled nanofabrication, imaging, photo-/electrochemical, and electromechanical measurement to realise atomically precisely controlled nanofabrication, in-situ imaging, and real-time measurement of single active sites in micro and nanoscale devices.The proposed facility features high-quality measurements in an unmatched spatial and temporal range, allowing studying physical and chemical phenomena that are difficult to detect using conventional methods. The proposed integrated system will be the first of its kind in Australia. Read moreRead less
Next generation easy-clean lenses by robust liquid-repellent nanotextures. This project aims to produce better performing self-cleaning lenses, which are less likely to get dirty and are easy to clean. It will develop water and oil repellent coatings with superior optical transparency and mechanical, solvent and UV stability for both hard coated and anti-reflection coated optical lenses. Engineering of stable, ultra-liquid repellent nanomaterials on transparent surfaces will create a foundation ....Next generation easy-clean lenses by robust liquid-repellent nanotextures. This project aims to produce better performing self-cleaning lenses, which are less likely to get dirty and are easy to clean. It will develop water and oil repellent coatings with superior optical transparency and mechanical, solvent and UV stability for both hard coated and anti-reflection coated optical lenses. Engineering of stable, ultra-liquid repellent nanomaterials on transparent surfaces will create a foundation of knowledge for the industrial development of the future generation of easy care coatings, with vast application potential.Read moreRead less
