Funded Activity Summary

Superior silicon carbide nanoscale sensors (SCANS) for harsh environments. This project aims to demonstrate a large increase in sensitivity, ultra-fast response, and super robust characteristics of nanoscale sensors suitable for harsh environment applications. Sensors in mining, power and aerospace industries must function properly in high temperature, aggressive chemical erosion, and high impact environments. Silicon carbide (SiC) sensors formed using a unique growth process of SiC films on large-diameter silicon wafers can meet these requirements through nanoscale structures. This project expects to bring direct economic benefits to the resource and manufacturing sectors, creating valuable intellectual property and new jobs for Australians.
