Funded Activity Summary

Exploring the Dynamics of Nanostructure Self-Organisation during Compound Semiconductor Epitaxy. The application of LEEM to GaAs and InAs will be a world first, positioning Australia at the forefront of nanoscale self-organisation, leading to important international recognition and publicity. The spectacular movies obtained will revolutionise our basic understanding of compound semiconductor self-organisation and facilitate an improved control over nanostructure fabrication using MBE. This will generate entirely new device structures relevant to the frontier technologies of photonics and quantum information processing. The project will provide high level training for post-graduate and honours students in nanoscale characterisation and synchrotron science.
