Summary
Ultraviolet laser system (193 nanometres). New grating and integrated component technologies—many of which were pioneered in Australia at the existing facility—are revolutionising the role of photonics in disciplines outside of telecommunications. From ultra-high temperature fibre gratings for both the energy and mining industries and high power fibre lasers, through to the processing of substrates to pattern chemical attachment of self-assembled structures, and novel quantum processing approach ....Ultraviolet laser system (193 nanometres). New grating and integrated component technologies—many of which were pioneered in Australia at the existing facility—are revolutionising the role of photonics in disciplines outside of telecommunications. From ultra-high temperature fibre gratings for both the energy and mining industries and high power fibre lasers, through to the processing of substrates to pattern chemical attachment of self-assembled structures, and novel quantum processing approaches, new research areas are emerging. 193nm laser processing remains central to all these technologies. This facility will continue to keep Australia at the forefront of such research underpinning this next generation of technologies.Read moreRead less

Summary
Advanced facility for next generation sustainable energy, biomedical & nano-imaging optical fibre technologies. Remote optical fibre technologies are the way forward for effective and safe monitoring of many industries, and will play a big part in the sustainability of Australia's core oil, gas and alternative energy sectors. They are equally important to health industry applications, particularly in medical and imaging technologies. This facility brings together world-class Australian expertise ....Advanced facility for next generation sustainable energy, biomedical & nano-imaging optical fibre technologies. Remote optical fibre technologies are the way forward for effective and safe monitoring of many industries, and will play a big part in the sustainability of Australia's core oil, gas and alternative energy sectors. They are equally important to health industry applications, particularly in medical and imaging technologies. This facility brings together world-class Australian expertise—from across nine universities—in advanced structured optical fibres, complex fibre diagnostic systems, nanoscale imaging, and environment monitoring, to design and implement the next generation of technologies that will reduce the impact of climate change through reduced energy consumption and vastly improved health diagnostics.Read moreRead less
