Funded Activity Summary

Nanospintronics - Spin Transport in Semiconductor Nanostructures. The multi-billion dollar semiconductor industry drives the explosive growth in information technology that we have witnessed over the past 25 years. This proposal will provide a significant breakthrough by developing a new class of spintronic devices that will be of benefit to Australia's ongoing efforts in semiconductor nanotechnology and quantum information science, allowing us to play a role in the future development of nanoscale and quantum electronics. This research program will provide training for Australian students in a cutting-edge semiconductor research facility, and involve linkages with leading international universities including Massey University (NZ), NTT Basic Research Labs (Japan) and the University of Bochum (Germany).
