This project aims to establish a transmission electron microscope facility to analyse materials structure at the atomic level. A small number of atoms in critical locations governs the properties of materials from solar cells and catalysts to aerospace alloys, bio-sensors and quantum computers. To understand and engineer matter at this atomic level, tools are needed to characterise these critical atoms. This open access, national facility will be able to characterise matter at the atomic-level. Expected outcomes include better understanding of the natural world and advanced materials to solve problems in energy, technology, health, environment, communications, advanced manufacturing, transport and security.Read moreRead less

A triple beam microscope: new frontiers in materials nanocharacterisation. This project aims to establish a triple beam ion and electron microscope facility for the modification, preparation and characterisation of materials that have hitherto been too sensitive for high resolution analysis with charged particle beams. It is expected that materials will be studied artefact-free and at the nanoscale with twin ion beams and new detectors that allow novel imaging modes and extreme chemical sensitiv ....A triple beam microscope: new frontiers in materials nanocharacterisation. This project aims to establish a triple beam ion and electron microscope facility for the modification, preparation and characterisation of materials that have hitherto been too sensitive for high resolution analysis with charged particle beams. It is expected that materials will be studied artefact-free and at the nanoscale with twin ion beams and new detectors that allow novel imaging modes and extreme chemical sensitivity plus controlled atmosphere transfer to other instruments for correlative measurements. This unique facility should benefit research in many disciplines such as physics, chemistry, geology, pharmacy, materials, civil and chemical engineering by allowing first-ever observations of vital phenomena in diverse materials.Read moreRead less

This project aims to transform Australia’s waste and resource recovery industry by equipping it with scientifically developed advanced manufacturing capability, focusing on small-scale processing of materials produced from battery and consumer wastes which would otherwise mostly end up in landfill. The project will deliver new knowledge in high-temperature reactions of waste and selective synthesis techniques to transform waste into valuable materials and products, including metallic alloys, oxides and carbon. Expected outcomes include industry adoption of commercially viable technology and processes where low value or complex waste is reformed into higher value materials, creating jobs and significant environmental and social benefits.Read moreRead less
Haemodynamic investigation of flow diverter stents for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. This project will explore the engineering of a flow diverter, an endovascular device for the treatment of brain aneurysms. The project will determine the optimal design of new types of flow diverters, which in turn could improve the effectiveness of treatments, thus reducing the associated costs of cerebral haemorrhage and stroke.
