Funded Activity Summary

Swift Heavy Ion Tracks in Semiconductors and Insulators: New Insights using Synchrotron Scattering Experiments. The proposed research will broaden the domestic knowledge base and enhance the national research profile in an important cross-disciplinary and technologically-relevant field with a potential high impact in areas with considerable national activity. It will train young scientists, particularly in the use of two national facilities: the Australian Synchrotron and the ANU Heavy-Ion Accelerator facility. Furthermore, domestic capabilities in materials characterization will be bolstered and the collaboration with overseas investigators will facilitate mutually beneficial transfer of expertise. The proposal is consistent with National Research Priority 3 and the Priority Goals: Breakthrough Science and Frontier Technologies.
