Electronic devices underpin a trillion dollar industry worldwide and are an essential part of modern life. Spintronics (spin-electronics) is an emergent technology that combines the electrical and magnetic properties of electrons to represent and process information. Spintronic chips are expected to be fast, versatile, capable of simultaneous data storage and processing, while at the same time consuming less energy. Industry analysts suggest the spintronic market will exceed $10 billion. This facility will provide the critical infrastructure needed to study the electronic and magnetic properties of nanostructured materials, providing the underpinning knowledge to develop the next generation of spintronic devices.Read moreRead less
ARC Centre of Excellence for Nanoscale BioPhotonics. The CNBP brings together physicists, chemists and biologists focused on a grand challenge controlling nanoscale interactions between light and matter to probe the complex and dynamic nanoenvironments within living organisms. The emerging convergence of nanoscience and photonics offers the opportunity of using light to interrogate nanoscale domains, providing unprecedentedly localised measurements. This will allow biological scientists to unde ....ARC Centre of Excellence for Nanoscale BioPhotonics. The CNBP brings together physicists, chemists and biologists focused on a grand challenge controlling nanoscale interactions between light and matter to probe the complex and dynamic nanoenvironments within living organisms. The emerging convergence of nanoscience and photonics offers the opportunity of using light to interrogate nanoscale domains, providing unprecedentedly localised measurements. This will allow biological scientists to understand how single cells react to and communicate with their surroundings. This science will underpin a new generation of devices capable of probing the response of cells within individuals to environmental conditions or treatment, creating innovative and powerful new sensing platforms.Read moreRead less
