项目摘要

Most advanced materials are actually composite systems where each part is specifically tailored to provide a particular functionality often via doping. In electronic devices this may be p- or n-type behaviour (the preference to conduct positive of negative charges), in optical devices the ability to emit light at a given wavelength (such as in the infrared for optical fibre communications), or in magnetic materials the ability to store information based on the direction of a magnetic field for example. To enable the realisation of new devices it is essential to increase the density of functionality within a given device volume. Simple miniaturisation (i.e. to fit more devices of the same type but of smaller size) is limited in scope as the nanoscale regime is reached, not only by the well-known emergence of quantum effects, but by the simple capability to control the materials engineering on this scale. Self-assembly methods for example enable the creation of 0D (so called 'quantum dots' or 'artificial atoms'), 1D (wire-like) and 2D (sheet-like) materials with unique properties, but the subsequent control and modification of these is non-trivial and has yet to be demonstrated in many cases. This research aims to establish a Platform for Nanoscale Advanced Materials Engineering (P-NAME) facility that incorporates a new tool which will provide the capability required to deliver a fundamental change in our ability to design and engineer materials. The principle of the technique that we will adapt, is that which revolutionised the micro-electronics industry in the 20th century (ion-doping) but applied on the nanoscale for the first time. Furthermore, the P-NAME tool will be compatible with a scalable technology platform and therefore compatible with its use in high-tech device manufacture. Without this capability the production of increasingly complex materials offering enhance functionality at lower-power consumption will be difficult to achieve.The P-NAME facility will be established within a new UK National Laboratory for Advanced Materials (the Henry Royce Institute) at the University of Manchester. Access to the tool will be made available to UK academics and industry undertaking research into advanced functional materials and devices development.

大多数先进材料实际上是复合体系，其中每个部分都是专门定制的，以提供特定的功能，通常是通过掺杂。在电子器件中，这可以是p型或n型行为(偏爱导电正电荷或负电荷)，在光学器件中，这可以是在给定波长发射光的能力(例如，在用于光纤通信的红外中)，或者在磁性材料中，这可以是基于磁场方向存储信息的能力。要实现新设备，必须增加给定设备卷内的功能密度。随着纳米尺度的到来，简单的小型化(即适应更多相同类型但尺寸更小的设备)的范围受到限制，不仅受到众所周知的量子效应的出现，而且受到在这种规模上控制材料工程的简单能力的限制。例如，自组装方法能够产生具有独特性质的0维(所谓的‘量子点’或‘人造原子’)、1维(线状)和2维(片状)材料，但随后对这些材料的控制和修饰不是微不足道的，并且在许多情况下还没有得到证明。这项研究旨在为纳米级先进材料工程(P-NAME)设施建立一个平台，其中包含一个新工具，该工具将提供所需的能力，使我们的材料设计和工程能力发生根本性变化。我们将采用的这项技术的原理，是在20世纪彻底改变了微电子工业的原理(离子掺杂)，但首次应用于纳米级。此外，P-NAME工具将与可扩展的技术平台兼容，因此与其在高科技设备制造中的使用兼容。如果没有这种能力，生产日益复杂的材料将很难以较低的功耗提供增强的功能。P-NAME设施将在曼彻斯特大学的一个新的英国先进材料国家实验室(亨利·罗伊斯研究所)内建立。该工具将向从事先进功能材料和设备开发研究的英国学术界和行业人士开放。
