The First Chemically Accurate Tools in Theoretical Materials Research. Non-metallic materials are widely used in catalytic, separation and sensing applications. This project will create a new, accurate, general and systematic approach to the computational study of non-metallic materials and will provide an enormous step forward in our ability to design these materials for specific applications.

Non-metallic materials are widely used in catalytic, separation and sensing applications. This project will create a new, accurate, general and systematic approach to the computational study of non-metallic materials and will provide an enormous step forward in our ability to design these materials for specific applications. With ever increasing demand, growing world population and shrinking natural resources, the benefits of such rational materials design impact on the development of new, safer, more efficient, reusable materials in chemical, engineering, electronic and biological applications.

Centre for Quantum Computer Technology. Development of a quantum computer (QC) for massively parallel computing is one of the major challenges in science and engineering this century. Since 2000 the Centre has achieved two major breakthroughs in this field: constructing the key functional element of a silicon solid-state QC; and co-inventing a scheme for efficient linear optics QC. The proposed CoE aims to align these two nationally co-ordinated research programs with the world's existing comput ....Centre for Quantum Computer Technology. Development of a quantum computer (QC) for massively parallel computing is one of the major challenges in science and engineering this century. Since 2000 the Centre has achieved two major breakthroughs in this field: constructing the key functional element of a silicon solid-state QC; and co-inventing a scheme for efficient linear optics QC. The proposed CoE aims to align these two nationally co-ordinated research programs with the world's existing computer and IT industries to realise a fault-tolerant multiple qubit quantum processor with integrated control and qubit chips, and develop a scaleable optical quantum processor providing significant economic benefit to Australia.Read moreRead less
