SA Spectromicroscopy Facility: From Band Mapping to Atomic Scale Imaging

这项提议旨在建立澳大利亚第一个先进的光谱显微镜设备，能够对先进材料进行实时能量过滤动量空间成像。该装置将实现先进材料的电子能带结构与器件功能之间的直接关联。这对于理解电子在材料中的传输是至关重要的，这些材料包括用于量子计算机的拓扑绝缘体和晶体管、用于储能设备和催化的纳米材料以及地球科学。这笔投资将确保在纳米技术、特性和先进制造方面的创新，这对澳大利亚保持在全球市场上的竞争力至关重要。

This proposal aims to establish Australia’s first advanced spectromicroscopy facility capable of energy filtered momentum space imaging of advanced materials in real time. The facility will enable the direct correlation between electron band-structure of advanced materials with device function. This is essential for understanding the electron transport in materials including topological insulators and transistors for quantum computers; nanomaterials for energy storage devices and catalysis, and geoscience. The investment will ensure innovation in Nanotechnology, Characterisation, and Advanced Manufacturing that is crucial for Australian to remain competitive in the global market.
