2D nanomaterial heterostructures for photocatalytic hydrogen production. This project aims to develop two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterial heterostructures as photocatalysts for hydrogen production from the liquid carrier of methanol. In addition to transformational photocatalytic technology to utilise Australian raw resources, this project expects to generate new knowledge in the areas of photochemistry, materials science and nanotechnology.

This project aims to develop two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterial heterostructures as photocatalysts for hydrogen production from the liquid carrier of methanol. In addition to transformational photocatalytic technology to utilise Australian raw resources, this project expects to generate new knowledge in the areas of photochemistry, materials science and nanotechnology. These should not only expand the applications of 2D nanomaterials to a new domain of photocatalysts, but also may eventually lead to new industry advances in 2D nanomaterials for a ‘hydrogen economy’.

This Centre aims to explore the society wide transformations that will flow from optical frequency combs - thousands of highly pure light signals precisely spaced across the entire optical spectrum - by leveraging and building upon the latest breakthroughs in physics, materials science and nanofabrication. It expects to generate a wide new base of knowledge in fields as diverse as astronomy, spectroscopy, chemical sensors, and precision measurement. Expected outcomes include the capability to realise complete comb systems on a chip the size of a fingernail, tailored to specific applications, with significant benefits spanning from imaging live cells to autonomous vehicles, satellite communications, and the search for exoplanets.Read moreRead less
