This project aims to establish equipment for advanced surface analysis to provide Australian researchers with cutting-edge capabilities in surface science. Vital chemical and physical reactions often occur at surfaces. Understanding these reactions requires analysis of the composition and electronic structure of the surface and near-surface regions. Neutral impact collision ion scattering spectroscopy and inverse photoemission spectroscopy measure concentration depth profiles and electronic structure. The depth resolution of the profiles is in the order of the distance between two neighbouring atoms in a solid or liquid and is the best currently achievable. The equipment providing these capabilities is expected to support research with applications in photovoltaics, catalysis, colloid surfaces and interfaces, coatings and nanocomposites.Read moreRead less

Summary
Unravelling the spin transport properties in organic spintronic devices. This project aims to understand and control spin transport properties in organic semiconductors (OSC) and develop novel organic spintronic devices. OSCs have become the centre of attention in the spintronics community as they have very small spin-orbit coupling and hyperfine interactions, which lead to very long spin coherence times and make them ideal for spin transport. However, the basic mechanisms of spin injection, tra ....Unravelling the spin transport properties in organic spintronic devices. This project aims to understand and control spin transport properties in organic semiconductors (OSC) and develop novel organic spintronic devices. OSCs have become the centre of attention in the spintronics community as they have very small spin-orbit coupling and hyperfine interactions, which lead to very long spin coherence times and make them ideal for spin transport. However, the basic mechanisms of spin injection, transport, and manipulation in OSCs are still obscure. The project expects to clarify the spin-dynamics, which will advance our understandings of spin transport in OSCs and could contribute to the development of spin-based molecular electronics for future applications.Read moreRead less
