Summary
Integrated Tip-Enabled Nanofabrication and Characterisation at Atomic Scale. This project aims to establish the most advanced all-in-one multifunctional system going beyond the best system in the world. This facility is expected to combine tip-enabled nanofabrication, imaging, photo-/electrochemical, and electromechanical measurement to realise atomically precisely controlled nanofabrication, in-situ imaging, and real-time measurement of single active sites in micro and nanoscale devices.The pro ....Integrated Tip-Enabled Nanofabrication and Characterisation at Atomic Scale. This project aims to establish the most advanced all-in-one multifunctional system going beyond the best system in the world. This facility is expected to combine tip-enabled nanofabrication, imaging, photo-/electrochemical, and electromechanical measurement to realise atomically precisely controlled nanofabrication, in-situ imaging, and real-time measurement of single active sites in micro and nanoscale devices.The proposed facility features high-quality measurements in an unmatched spatial and temporal range, allowing studying physical and chemical phenomena that are difficult to detect using conventional methods. The proposed integrated system will be the first of its kind in Australia. Read moreRead less

Summary
Chronic visceral pain is a common and debilitating condition arising from numerous diseases that affect our internal organs. There is a desperate need for more information about the mechanisms responsible for signalling chronic visceral pain to provide therapies and potentially find a cure for it. Our research focuses on ?-conotoxins (small peptides from marine cone snail venom) as novel potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of chronic visceral pain.

Summary
High bandwidth, high speed, terahertz optical sampling and analysis system. This project aims to promote scientific and technological research by providing access to a wide bandwidth, high speed, high resolution advanced terahertz spectrometer. Terahertz frequencies are the least-explored region of the electromagnetic spectrum and investment here is likely to yield scientific and technological reward. Expected outcomes are new commercial devices and products operating in the terahertz regime. Th ....High bandwidth, high speed, terahertz optical sampling and analysis system. This project aims to promote scientific and technological research by providing access to a wide bandwidth, high speed, high resolution advanced terahertz spectrometer. Terahertz frequencies are the least-explored region of the electromagnetic spectrum and investment here is likely to yield scientific and technological reward. Expected outcomes are new commercial devices and products operating in the terahertz regime. The project’s expected effects include new commercial terahertz products; better monitoring of explosives and toxins; research training and job creation; reduced risk in decision making, especially when monitoring water; and cultural benefits, through applying terahertz methods to artworks.Read moreRead less
