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有效的工具。它们广泛应用于固体化学、凝聚态物理、材料科学和工程领域。这是澳大利亚第一个光学浮区炉，将支持和鼓励这些领域越来越多的当地研究人员。这将使他们能够更好地利用澳大利亚正在建造的新研究反应堆和同步加速器，最大限度地提高他们在这些设施中为基础和应用研究生长技术和科学重要材料，特别是电子和磁性材料晶体的能力。
