Funded Activity Summary

Nanophotonic engineering for Petabyte 3D opto-magnetic data storage. To tackle the capacity bottleneck of current big data centres enabled by hard disk drives, this project aims to investigate an entirely new concept of petabyte 3D opto-magnetic data storage by nanophotonic engineering of the Inverse Faraday Effect (IFE) based on breakthrough achievements in 3D orientation-unlimited polarisation control and the innovative discovery of the polarisation dependent IFE. This project aims to produce cutting-edge opto-magnetic information technologies to revolutionise magnetic storage industries and provide a new paradigm of exabyte data centres for a sustainable future, thereby maximising Australia's competitive advantage in the emerging big data sector.
