Magnetometry Facility for Molecular and Nanoscale Materials

信息和通信技术的进步在很大程度上取决于提高逻辑和存储电子设备的容量、速度和能效。这些改进可以通过将组件尺寸减小到纳米级并使用磁自旋以及电荷来实现。该项目旨在建立澳大利亚第一个综合磁力测量设施，以确定一系列纳米材料的磁性，直至单个纳米磁体的水平。该设施将为澳大利亚研究人员提供关键的表征能力，建设开发用于高密度数据存储、量子计算和自旋电子学的新型磁性纳米材料和设备的能力。

Advances in information and communications technology are critically dependent on increasing the capacity, speed and energy efficiency of logic and memory electronic devices. These improvements can be achieved by reducing component size to the nanoscale and using magnetic spin as well as charge. This Project aims to establish Australia's first integrated Magnetometry Facility for determining the magnetic properties of a range of nanoscale materials down to the level of individual nanomagnets. The Facility will provide crucial characterisation capabilities for Australian researchers, building capacity to develop new magnetic nanomaterials and devices for high-density data storage, quantum computing and spintronics.
