National Electromagnetic Characterization Facility for Advanced Electronic and Biomaterials

拟议的使用非破坏性方法的材料表征设施将是澳大利亚独有的。使用该设备对电介质和超导体等先进材料进行精确表征，将推动电子和通信研究领域的新兴技术进步。在实验室内加入微波扫描测试床将使工程师、科学家、生物学家和医学科学家能够安全地检测电子材料的内在电磁特性以及生物组织或劣质农产品中的肿瘤。因此，这一全面的材料表征设施将在许多重大和不同的方面造福澳大拉西亚人民。

The proposed Material Characterisation Facility using non-destructive methods will be unique to Australia. Precise characterisation of advanced materials such as dielectrics and superconductors using the facility will progress emerging technologies within the electronic and communication research area. The inclusion of a microwave scanning test bed within the laboratory will allow engineers, scientists, biologists and medical scientists to safely detect the intrinsic electromagnetic properties of electronic materials and tumours in biological tissues or poor quality agricultural produce. This comprehensive material characterisation facility will therefore benefit the peoples of Australasia in many significant and diverse ways.
