Advanced X-ray facility for structural elucidation and photocrystallography

该项目旨在建立一个先进的光晶学X射线设备。准确确定分子结构和了解分子如何与光相互作用对于设计和优化新材料非常重要。通常情况下，阐明这些性质的测量必须分开进行，这使得结构与性质的关联变得困难。该设施将允许创造应用于制药、分离科学、有机光电子学和磁性材料的新材料。该设施将建设X射线技术的能力，创建合作，并为学生和早期职业研究人员提供一个独特的培训场所。材料创新方面的进展将增强澳大利亚工业和制造业创新的未来生存能力。

This project aims to establish an advanced photocrystallography X-ray facility. Accurately determining molecular structure and understanding how molecules interact with light is important to design and optimise new materials. Normally, measurements to elucidate these properties have to be done separately, making structure-property correlations difficult. The facility will allow the creation of new materials with application in pharmaceuticals, separation science, organic optoelectronics and magnetic materials. The facility will build capacity in X-ray techniques, create collaborations and provide a unique training ground for students and Early Career Researchers. The advances in materials innovation will strengthen the future viability of Australian industries and manufacturing innovation.
