Funded Activity Summary

3-D investigation of internal interfaces in annealed metals using 3-D focused ion beam tomography. The research will utlilise a suite of highly sophisticated techniques to study the interfacial structure in annealed metals. The dual beam platform is the first of its kind in Australia and will generate high resolution 3-D images from any solid material. There is enormous potential for its use in materials science and other research fields which is beneficial to Australia's standing in basic science. Considering the sophisticated nature of the techniques, the project will provide an excellent research training environment for early career researchers who will develop expertise with techniques that are expected to a make major contribution to fundamental and applied research over the next few years.
