Description

Electron microscopy facilities for in-situ materials characterisation. This project aims to significantly strengthen our national capability in high resolution in-situ transmission electron microscopy through the introduction of special in-situ specimen holders and an imaging detector. The project expects to advance knowledge critical for the design of advanced materials with outstanding properties. Expected outcomes of this project will provide critical support for thorough understanding of how the microstructures of materials affect their mechanical, thermal, electrical, and magnetic properties and will facilitate strategic collaborations among Australian scientists. This should promote Australia’s global leadership in materials research and advanced manufacturing.. Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 0912 - Materials Engineering. Lead: Prof Xiaozhou Liao
