Summary
A customised triple-beam microscope for precise fabricating/characterising . This project aims to establish a customised triple-beam microscope to enable precise fabrication and polishing (using ion beams) and characterisation (using electron beam) of a wide range of advanced materials. It will provide solutions to prepare ultra-high quality and artefact-free specimens for transmission electron microscopy studies, and allow fabrication of unique nanostructures and nanostructured templates for hi ....A customised triple-beam microscope for precise fabricating/characterising . This project aims to establish a customised triple-beam microscope to enable precise fabrication and polishing (using ion beams) and characterisation (using electron beam) of a wide range of advanced materials. It will provide solutions to prepare ultra-high quality and artefact-free specimens for transmission electron microscopy studies, and allow fabrication of unique nanostructures and nanostructured templates for high-performance applications. The customised features of the proposed instrument are the first of its kind in Australia. The new knowledge developed through this project will significantly impact on scientific insights and practical applications of new materials related to physics, chemistry, biology, geology and engineering.Read moreRead less

Summary
Electronic structure on both sides of the Fermi level in molecular material. This project aims to develop an inverse photoemission spectrometer to elucidate the electronic properties of molecular materials. In tandem with traditional photoemission, the spectrometer will measure the electronic structure of small molecules for organic electronics and two-dimensional graphene-analogous polymers, providing information critical to their development and use. The instrument is expected to bring critica ....Electronic structure on both sides of the Fermi level in molecular material. This project aims to develop an inverse photoemission spectrometer to elucidate the electronic properties of molecular materials. In tandem with traditional photoemission, the spectrometer will measure the electronic structure of small molecules for organic electronics and two-dimensional graphene-analogous polymers, providing information critical to their development and use. The instrument is expected to bring critical insight to the burgeoning field of molecular materials, with potential widespread applications from energy conversion to sensing and electronics, with benefits across sectors.Read moreRead less
