Funded Activity Summary

Engineering the Building Blocks of Novel Interfacial Metastable Oxide Materials. This project aims to engineer the building blocks of a new family of materials recently discovered and patented as interfacial metastable oxide (i-MOx). A key discovery is the interfacial columnar atom alignment adjacent to crystal structures, conferring the materials exceptional ionic conduction well beyond the state-of-the-art, with a broad appeal to ionic transport membranes, electrodes in fuel cells and thermal cycling oxygen production. Advanced characterisation techniques will be employed to fundamentally elucidate the role that the interfacial structure plays to deliver remarkable performance. The outcomes will lead to possible breakthroughs in advanced materials for emerging green energy applications.
