Quantum technology is set to play a significant role in the next generation of sensors, computers and communication systems. Diamond is a critical part of this technology revolution as it allows for room temperature quantum-based applications. This projects aims to establish a world leading facility to engineer quantum-grade diamond for precision sensing, secure communications and desktop quantum computing applications. Direct outcomes from the facility include: ultrasensitive magnetometers for magnetoencephalography, atomic microscopes for biomolecular imaging and novel sensing probes to interface with biology. The facility will seed the emerging diamond quantum industry in Australia and train the next generation of quantum engineers.Read moreRead less
Crystal-chemical tuning of order and disorder: a strategy for the discovery of novel solid state ionic conductors. The ultimate aim of this project is to discover novel ionic conductors suitable for use in energy technologies. By identifying, comprehensively characterising and optimising a number of such materials, this project will provide industry with the opportunity to implement them in new and improved devices.
Built-in electric field, light co-driven materials for energy and sensing . This project aims to resolve critical, bottleneck issues in the development of photocatalysis and photoelectrochemistry - key technologies towards the realisation of a sustainable carbon-neutral society. This project expects to use an innovative strain-engineering approach establishing a built-in electric field within materials for highly efficient separation and transport of photoexcited carriers. Expected outcomes of t ....Built-in electric field, light co-driven materials for energy and sensing . This project aims to resolve critical, bottleneck issues in the development of photocatalysis and photoelectrochemistry - key technologies towards the realisation of a sustainable carbon-neutral society. This project expects to use an innovative strain-engineering approach establishing a built-in electric field within materials for highly efficient separation and transport of photoexcited carriers. Expected outcomes of this project are to create new, ground-breaking materials and/or nanosystems that overcome intrinsic weakness of conventional semiconductors and significantly improve their photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical performance, for the benefit of the utilisation of solar and light energy in energy, environment and health.
