Ultrafast laser facility for chemical, biological and physical investigations of advanced materials

超快激光技术在许多不同的科学学科中正变得不可或缺。在澳大利亚科学界内，迫切需要更多地获得先进的超快激光仪器。通过增加最先进的激光设备扩展到飞秒激光设施，将使新型激光光谱测量和先进的光学显微镜技术能够应用于先进材料和生物系统的研究。获得这种仪器对于包括光致发光导电聚合物、纳米颗粒、用于人工光合作用系统的工程超分子以及光激活疗法和药物输送/释放技术等领域至关重要。

Ultrafast laser techniques are becoming indispensable in many diverse scientific disciplines. Within the Australian scientific community, there is a great need for enhanced access to sophisticated ultrafast laser instrumentation. The expansion to the femtosecond laser facility through the addition of state-of-the-art laser devices, will enable novel laser spectroscopy measurements and advanced optical microscopy techniques to be applied to investigations of advanced materials and biological systems. Access to such instrumentation is crucial to fields including photoluminescent conductive polymers, nanoparticles, engineered supramolecules for artificial photosynthetic systems, and photoactivated therapy and drug delivery/release technology.
