Optical floating-zone furnaces are powerful and efficient tools for the discovery and characterisation of new materials. They are widely used in the solid-state chemistry, condensed-matter physics, materials science, and engineering communities. This optical floating-zone furnace, the first in Australia, will support and encourage the growing number of local researchers in these fields. It will allow them to take much better advantage of the new research reactor and synchrotron being constructed in Australia by maximising their ability to grow crystals of technologically and scientifically important materials, particularly electronic and magnetic materials, for fundamental and applied research at those facilities.

光学浮区炉是发现和表征新材料的强大而高效的工具。它们广泛应用于固态化学、凝聚态物理、材料科学和工程领域。这种光学浮区炉是澳大利亚第一台，将支持和鼓励越来越多的当地研究人员在这些领域进行研究。这将使他们能够更好地利用在澳大利亚建造的新研究堆和同步加速器，最大限度地提高技术和科学上重要材料（特别是电子和磁性材料）晶体的生长能力，用于这些设施的基础和应用研究。
