Summary
Multi-function high resolution-analytical scanning electron microscope facility. The aim of this proposal is to establish a high resolution electron microscope facility as part of a comprehensive materials characterisation infrastructure required to support Swinburne's expanding activities in nanotechnology. A high resolution SEM in conjunction with an upgrade of the current SEM will provide advanced instrumentation for nanoscale imaging, analysis and manipulation of materials. The proposed faci ....Multi-function high resolution-analytical scanning electron microscope facility. The aim of this proposal is to establish a high resolution electron microscope facility as part of a comprehensive materials characterisation infrastructure required to support Swinburne's expanding activities in nanotechnology. A high resolution SEM in conjunction with an upgrade of the current SEM will provide advanced instrumentation for nanoscale imaging, analysis and manipulation of materials. The proposed facility will create new opportunities for collaborative programs with local and overseas researcher and will facilitate rapid progress in research programs across the entire University in particular those related to two ARC Centres of Excellence in which the University is a core partner.Read moreRead less

Summary
The Melbourne Nanofabrication Facility. Australia is desperately short of facilities for actual fabrication, prototyping and construction of advanced micromechanical and nanoscale systems. This is impeding both academic researchers and industrial developers in the materials, optics and biotechnological industries. The proposed instrument would complete the development of Australia's newest high resolution microscopy centre and enable a wide range of users to image, measure, build and design comp ....The Melbourne Nanofabrication Facility. Australia is desperately short of facilities for actual fabrication, prototyping and construction of advanced micromechanical and nanoscale systems. This is impeding both academic researchers and industrial developers in the materials, optics and biotechnological industries. The proposed instrument would complete the development of Australia's newest high resolution microscopy centre and enable a wide range of users to image, measure, build and design complex nanostructures at the atomic level and upwards.

Summary
X-ray Nano-scale Coherence Facility. Australia is rapidly developing into a world leader for x-ray imaging. This position has been supported by leading research groups and more recently by the development of the Australian Synchrotron. This project will fill a vital missing link in the experimental capability of Australian researchers - a flexible facility that can provide a nanoscale x-ray source. This enhanced capability will lead to new developments in coherent imaging methods. These new meth ....X-ray Nano-scale Coherence Facility. Australia is rapidly developing into a world leader for x-ray imaging. This position has been supported by leading research groups and more recently by the development of the Australian Synchrotron. This project will fill a vital missing link in the experimental capability of Australian researchers - a flexible facility that can provide a nanoscale x-ray source. This enhanced capability will lead to new developments in coherent imaging methods. These new methods will be used in the study of biological systems, leading to better drug design as well as in the study of materials, leading to stronger and lighter components. Read moreRead less
