This is the time of year when ANFF prepares the annual Casebook. We are seeking projects and case studies to be included in the 2023 edition. ANFF – Connected 2023 will focus on ANFF’s connections with various research and technology ecosystems, allowing us to cover our critical role in research infrastructure at increasing levels of …
Flawless Photonics is pioneering the manufacturing and supply chain of next-generation optical fibres from space known as SpaceFiber™.
ANFF plays a critical role in supporting cutting-edge research programs that imagine innovative solutions to water purification and water treatment.
Quantum Brilliance is developing powerful diamond-based quantum accelerators that will integrate into today’s computer systems.
Through the innovative use of robotics and AI learning, a new Monash University ‘toolbox’ will develop and optimise new materials for photovoltaic cells.
University of Wollongong ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES) and ANFF-Materials researchers, led by Prof. David Officer and Distinguished Prof. Gordon Wallace, have developed a patented, scalable, graphite-to-graphene process to give a highly conductive edge-functionalised graphene (EFG).
UNSW and ANFF-NSW researchers Reem Almasri and Josiah Firth have fabricated optical electrodes to probe complex bio-electrical signals.
Dr Amanda Kijas and Prof. Alan Rowan are taking inspiration from nature to develop unique hydrogels that can save people from blood loss incurred during traumatic injury.
Archer Materials’ 12CQ carbon-based semiconductor chips will drive the development of a quantum computing processor that can operate in our daily lives. Archer Materials Limited is an ASX-listed company developing the next generation of semiconductors for an increasingly mobile and data-centric world. Its innovative technology utilizes carbon-based qubits rather than traditional silicon-based semiconductors for quantum …
Artist Deirdre Feeney’s creative application of microfabrication processes in her visual artwork MirrorMirror led to novel artistic outcomes and the necessity to push the boundaries of ANFF-SA’s surface polishing capabilities. Artists are increasingly collaborating with scientists and engineers to problem solve and creatively apply STEM methodologies into artworks. University of South Australia Contemporary Art lecturer …
The ANFF-Vic hub at Deakin University is providing the tools and expertise to convert old clothes into new fashion and substantially reduce the waste produced by this industry. Through modern consumption patterns, society discards an ever-increasing amount of material waste. In particular, the textile industry is a significant consumer of fresh water, pesticides and …
Poised to increase in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment success rates, a team of pioneering Australian researchers have developed an automated microfluidic platform to standardise complex IVF processes. In Australia alone, one in six couples is affected by infertility problems. In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is the most effective assisted reproductive technology, used to help couples with …
