Funded Activity Summary

Visualizing spin-related properties of functional nanostructures (for spintronics). This project contributes to undergraduate, postgraduate and postdoctoral research and training to encourage the pursuit of excellence, with: - increased depth of knowledge in interdisciplinary research, - a scientific environment providing access to research not otherwise in Australia, - experience in the design, construction and development of scientific instruments. Possible applications include high-speed magnetic filters, sensors, quantum transistors and spin qubits for quantum computers. The technological aspects of our project's outcomes offer real prospects of local development. The development of spin-polarized electron spectroscopy has great potential for existing applications in the surface science industry.
