The sonochemical synthesis of metal and semiconductor nanoparticles is one of several developing applications of ultrasound. Ultrasonically produced nanoparticles possess a number of specific properties, such as, pronounced catalytic activity. This project aims to ultrasonically synthesize metal nanoparticles and evaluate their suitability for fuel cell applications. The University of Melbourne and the Indiana University North-West research groups have a strong background and experience in the proposed research field. The outcome of this investigation will provide the basis for gaining other funding (e.g., ARC-NSF), which will establish a more extensive longer term collaboration between the universities.

金属和半导体纳米粒子的声化学合成是超声的几个发展中的应用之一。 超声波产生的纳米粒子具有许多特定的性质，如显著的催化活性。 该项目旨在通过超声波合成金属纳米颗粒，并评估其在燃料电池应用中的适用性。 墨尔本大学和印第安纳州西北大学的研究小组在拟议的研究领域有很强的背景和经验。这项调查的结果将为获得其他资金提供基础（例如，ARC-NSF），这将建立一个更广泛的大学之间的长期合作。
