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.

Joint Theoretical and Experimental Electron Momentum Spectroscopic Studies for DNA Bases. The study of DNA structure is an area of intense research activity and continues to reveal new levels of complexity and diversity. Recent experiments (Science, 2002) provided direct evidences of the adenine non-planarity, indicating non-rigidity of DNA bases. Electron momentum spectroscopy (EMS) has been identified to be an appropriate technique in the study of chemical binding mechanism and orbitals at mol ....Joint Theoretical and Experimental Electron Momentum Spectroscopic Studies for DNA Bases. The study of DNA structure is an area of intense research activity and continues to reveal new levels of complexity and diversity. Recent experiments (Science, 2002) provided direct evidences of the adenine non-planarity, indicating non-rigidity of DNA bases. Electron momentum spectroscopy (EMS) has been identified to be an appropriate technique in the study of chemical binding mechanism and orbitals at molecular level. The aims of the project is to study orbitals and interactions of DNA and RNA bases such as adenine, thymine (uracil), guanine and cytosine using momentum space quantum mechanics and EMS experimental techniques. The outcome of the project will improve our understanding of the DNA double helical strand structure.Read moreRead less
Microcharacterisation of rare-earth-doped optical fibres. Rare-earth-doped optical fibres continue to play a central role in optical telecommunication systems and are increasingly being used as elements in optical fibre sensing devices and as fibre lasers. The aim of this project is the application of new high spatial resolution techniques for determining the physical properties of such fibres. These methods will permit unprecedented knowledge of the precise distribution of rare-earth ions in th ....Microcharacterisation of rare-earth-doped optical fibres. Rare-earth-doped optical fibres continue to play a central role in optical telecommunication systems and are increasingly being used as elements in optical fibre sensing devices and as fibre lasers. The aim of this project is the application of new high spatial resolution techniques for determining the physical properties of such fibres. These methods will permit unprecedented knowledge of the precise distribution of rare-earth ions in the fibre and its relationship with the fibre's refractive index profile. This information is critical to understanding the performance of rare-earth-doped fibres in a variety of applications and the outcomes of this work will inform the design of fibres optimised for use in specific applications.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.
