Summary
High field magnet for materials processing and characterisation. The proposed infrastructure project will bring many Australian-based researchers together to create a completely new niche of materials processing research. Such a facility will be the first of its kind in Australia. This facility will be located in Australia and thus the time required to process and characterize materials will be significantly reduced without a need to send them overseas.

The proposed infrastructure project will bring many Australian-based researchers together to create a completely new niche of materials processing research. Such a facility will be the first of its kind in Australia. This facility will be located in Australia and thus the time required to process and characterize materials will be significantly reduced without a need to send them overseas. As a consequence of the proposed collaboration, a large number of high quality papers and patents are expected. The facility will increase Australia's position in the field of advanced materials processing and will also provide new ideas and concepts, which will be used in practical applications.Read moreRead less

Funding is requested to purchase an electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA) unit to be located at The University of Queensland and to upgrade and re-configure the scanning electron microscope facilities at the Queensland University of Technology. These integrated systems will be shared between the two institutions and will provide much needed infrastructure for several high profile and high performing groups. These groups include; Metallurgy, Materials, Earth Sciences, Chemistry, and Biomaterials. Acquisition of these facilities will complement the instrument mix at both institutions and will provide infrastructure that is necessary to sustain the leading edge research conducted by groups associated with this application.Read moreRead less
Microchip Impedance Biosensor for Biomedical Diagnostics. This research proposal uses an innovative engineering approach based on novel nanomaterials with the aim of developing a new and generic biosensing technology with the potential to be widely applied in many areas including medical diagnostics, environmental control, industry and biosecurity. The outcomes from this project will benefit Australia by contributing through the development of novel materials, new technologies and new devices. ....Microchip Impedance Biosensor for Biomedical Diagnostics.
