Funded Activity Summary

Self-Assembled Semiconductor Nanowires: A New Platform for Spintronic Devices. The multi-billion dollar semiconductor industry drives the extraordinary growth in information technology that we have witnessed in recent decades. This Fellowship will establish a new program to build electronic devices using tiny semiconductor 'nanowires'. It draws on UNSW's international reputation in nanoelectronics research, strongly enhances Australia's existing investment in the growth of nanowires at ANU, and will place Australia at the forefront of nanowire research on the international stage. This project will contribute strongly to Australia's ongoing efforts in semiconductor nanotechnology and quantum information science, and allow us to play a leading role in the development of next-generation computer technologies.
