This project aims to develop a novel method to engineer local chemical structures for achieving the polarity in narrow bandgap oxides via advanced thin-film growth and ion beam irradiation techniques. The developed new polar-photofunctional materials will significantly improve opto-electro-mechanical coupling and energy conversion, facilitating uses in renewable energy harvesting and smart optomechanical devices. The project expects to advance material science through a new concept and innovative methodology, achieve properties forbidden/limited by conventional strategies and expand candidate pools for new generation multifunctional materials, significantly advancing Australia’s capacity in advanced manufacturing and industry.

该项目旨在开发一种新的方法来设计局部化学结构，通过先进的薄膜生长和离子束辐照技术来实现窄禁带氧化物的极性。开发的新型极性-光功能材料将显著改善光机电耦合和能量转换，促进在可再生能源收集和智能光学机械设备中的使用。该项目预计将通过新的概念和创新方法推动材料科学的发展，实现传统战略禁止/限制的特性，并扩大新一代多功能材料的候选库，显著提高澳大利亚在先进制造和工业方面的能力。
