SUMMARY:Research Seminar - Dr Emory Chen (Molecular Foundry)
DESCRIPTION:High-throughput design of doped colloidal nanocrystals\nWhere: G29 – New Horizons Building (#82) Monash University \nColloidal inorganic nanocrystals exhibit precise morphologies and tunable properties\, making them essential components for nanophotonic devices and biological imaging. Our research explores the reaction networks that govern the controlled synthesis of inorganic nanoparticles\, and we investigate the photophysical networks that govern the optical properties of upconverting nanoparticles. To develop a holistic understanding of these intricate networks\, we use combinatorial and high-throughput robotic techniques to map the dynamics of these networks across material compositions and reaction conditions. Using these methods\, we manipulate the energy transfer pathways of lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles\, which combine near-infrared photons into visible light. Combinatorial screening and theoretical modeling reveal lanthanide dopant compositions that enable imaging of single upconverting nanoparticles comparable in size to fluorescent proteins and reveal nanoparticle compositions that enable excitation at the optimal wavelengths for imaging through tissue. Finally\, we demonstrate that these nanoparticles can be used to fabricate microscale\, upconverted lasers for biological sensing and stimulation. \nDr. Emory Chan is a Staff Scientist at the Molecular Foundry\, a U. S. Department of Energy nanoscience user facility at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Dr. Chan’s research interests include the combinatorial and high-throughput synthesis of semiconductor nanocrystals and lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles. He received a B.S. in Chemistry from Stanford University. Dr. Chan performed his doctoral research on with Prof. Paul Alivisatos and Prof. Richard Mathies in the Chemistry department at the University of California at Berkeley. Prior to his appointment as Staff Scientist at the Molecular Foundry\, Dr. Chan was a postdoc with Dr. Delia Milliron and later served on the technical staff at the Foundry.

SUMMARY:MCN welcomes Dr Helmut Schift and Dr Adrian Cernescu
DESCRIPTION:MCN is holding talks from two speakers on Thursday 14 December – Dr Helmut Schift\, Head of the Polymer Nanotechnology Group at INKA-PSI in Switzerland\, and Dr Adrian Cernescu\, Senior Process Engineer at neaspec GmbH and expert in nanoscale optical applications. \nDr Helmut Schift: Helmut is a pioneer of nanoimprint lithography – his talk will feature recent developments made by his team\, including 3D patterning capabilities such as direct writing laser lithography (two-photon polymerization). \nHelmut and INKA-PSI develop novel methods for topological and chemical surface patterns\, in particular using nanoimprint lithography and other moulding techniques. The group develop technology\, tools\, and processes to provide a toolbox for replication processes needed for academic research and industrial applications. \nDr Adrian Cernescu: Adrian will be discussing how scattering-type Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy (s-SNOM) can be used to provide imaging and spectroscopy at 10nm spatial resolution. He will introduce s-SNOM\, and how it can be used to overcome the diffraction limit of conventional light microscopy or spectroscopy. \nThe technique enables optical measurements at a spatial resolution of 10nm not only at visible frequencies but also in the infrared or terahertz spectral range. Several applications of nano-imaging and spectroscopy on different materials will be presented.

SUMMARY:Semiconducting polymer solar cells and electronic sensors with Dr Natalie Holmes
DESCRIPTION:The Melbourne Centre for Nanofabrication is pleased to host Dr Natalie Holmes as she presents her research on printable solar cells and biosensors. \nNatalie is visiting the Centre through the ANN Short Term Travel Fund to gain access to MCN’s FIB-SEM capabilities – her talk will be preceded by an introduction to FIB-SEM. \nAbstract: This talk will give an overview of polymer solar cell and electronic sensor research underway at the Centre for Organic Electronics. These research fields are attracting significant interest due to the low-cost\, large-scale fabrication afforded by the polymer printing inks. Glucose biosensors and dehydration sensors present an attractive technology for the remote detection of biological analytes. \nPolymer solar cells use the same semiconducting polymer materials and offer a competitive alternative to existing conventional solar cells. The cells are semitransparent\, flexible devices able to be printed with similar manufacturing techniques to newspapers and labels. The development of nanoparticle colloidal inks presents an eco-friendly option that could be employed for large-scale polymer solar cell fabrication in the future. \nBiography: Dr Natalie Holmes was awarded her PhD in Chemistry from the University of Newcastle in 2015\, as an Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) scholar\, where she was involved in the development of aqueous nanoparticle inks for the fabrication of organic solar cells. Her research investigated the structure-function relationships in these devices through the use of synchrotron-based X-ray microscopy\, electron microscopy and spectroscopy\, which led to the publication of several of the seminal articles in the emerging research field of nanoparticle organic solar cells. \nShortly after finishing her PhD\, Natalie took up a Visiting Postdoctoral Research Associate position at Karlstad University\, Sweden before returning to Australia as a Research Associate at the Centre for Organic Electronics (COE)\, University of Newcastle in materials science\, developing nano- and micro-structured functional polymeric materials for organic electronic sensor and solar cell applications.

SUMMARY:Research Seminar: Physiological and Biodynamic Effects of Physical Vibration on the Human Body.
DESCRIPTION:The MCN is proud to host A/Prof. Mohammad Fard from RMIT as he discusses Physiological and Biodynamic Effects of Physical Vibration on Human Body. \nAbstract: \nWithin the past two decades\, the growing applications of the Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) have allowed the automotive/aerospace industry to design lighter structures with high safety and improved interior noise-vibration comfort. However\, the lightening of the structures increases the transmission of the high frequency vibration into the vehicle occupant body. The transmission of vibration into the human body raises the cognitive load of the vehicle occupant and makes it psychologically and physiologically harder to maintain the performance of cognitive tasks such as driving. This seminar reviews the team recent research activities on characterisation and prediction of the physiological and biodynamic effects of the exposure to high frequency vibration. The team’s newly developed FEM model of the human body and the human-body-vibration measurement method will all be reviewed. The recent findings in psychologically and physiologically effects of vibration will also be presented. Finally\, some of the advanced CAE modelling techniques that are used to predict and reduce the transmission of the high frequency vibration into the occupant body will be presented. \nView the full flyer and Professor Fard’s biography here

SUMMARY:Nanophoton Micro-Raman Mapping and TERS Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Nanophoton\, a Japanese equipment manufacturer\, has been invited to give a seminar on its Micro-Raman Mapping and TERS techniques at MCN. The talk will be held in MCN’s boardroom at 2pm on Wednesday\, 23 November 2016. \nApplications Specialist Dr Taisuke Ota\, who will be giving the talk\, will cover both the applications and benefits of Raman/TERS techniques and technologies. \nRaman Spectroscopy is a powerful surface analysis tool for polymer characterisation\, providing vibrational information about molecular species as well as degree of crystallisation and polymerisation. In conjunction with confocal microscopy\, it is capable of providing detailed 3D chemical analysis of complex structures. \nThe technique has recently been enhanced using line scan technology which increases data acquisition rates and ultimate spatial resolution. This seminar will demonstrate how confocal Raman microscopy can be extended to use in research environments to monitor multi-layer films\, crystallisation process and chemical compounds. \nTip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS) microscope is an instrument which combines laser Raman microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The technique shows high sensitivity and spatial resolution beyond the diffraction limit. Using TERSsense\, observation of the small structures of Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene is possible. \nClick here to view the seminar flyer\, or click here to register for the talk.

SUMMARY:2016 Australian Symposium on Nano-Scale Resolved Infrared Spectroscopy
DESCRIPTION:Background\nInfrared nano-spectroscopy is becoming a standard platform for opto-chemical analysis of molecular\, plasmonic and photonic materials beyond the diffraction limit of light. This enhanced spatial resolution is achieved by combining scanning probe and infrared microscopies in a single experiment\, in which optical resolution only depends on the form factor of the probe. Recently\, with the use of broadband sources with high spectral irradiance through the mid-infrared range\, such as synchrotron sources\, many open questions related to the vibrational response of nanomaterials in the fingerprint region are closer to be elucidated. Single cell chemistry\, two-dimensional metamaterials\, nano-biomedicine\, soft nanomaterials design and nanoparticles-based drug delivery are some of the potential areas to be benefited the technique. \nObjectives of the Symposium\nThis symposium will offer over 2 days an interactive platform to learn about nano-scale resolved infrared spectroscopy through general lectures\, case studies\, modelling and data analysis session.\nAtomic Force Microscopy (AFM) data analysis as well as advanced IR micro-spectroscopy will also be highlighted and presented to provide a comprehensive overview for new users to the potential and limitations of the techniques. \nSymposium Program Here

SUMMARY:New Capability Seminar: The NanoFrazor-Explore System (SwissLitho AG)
DESCRIPTION:Next week MCN will take delivery of our new NanoFrazor Explore System from SwissLitho AG. This fantastic nanolithography tool (see below for tech details) comes to us as a result of a successful LEIF bid led by Melbourne University’s — and ANFF-VIC Collaboration Committee member — Prof Ray Dagastine. \nFollowing commissioning of the tool\, engineers from SwissLitho have agreed to hold a seminar and afternoon demo session on 7th July 2016 from 10AM in the MCN Boardroom for interested users. This is perhaps your one opportunity to ask any and all applications related questions you might have directly to the experts in this pioneering technology out of IBM Zurich. RSVP required. \nFor those interested\, AXT (local support for SwissLitho) has arranged a number of these sessions around Australia\, see flyer TSPL Workshop 2016. \nNanoFrazor Explore System \nThe NanoFrazor Explore has been developed for researchers who want to have easy and flexible access to high-resolution nanometer-sized geometries of almost any kind. It is based on Thermal Scanning Probe Lithography\, a technology developed at IBM Research Zurich\, which uses an ultra-sharp tip to evaporate a thermally sensitive resist.

SUMMARY:MCATM: 2D Materials Characterisation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Monash Centre for Atomically Thin Materials (MCATM) presents a one-day workshop on two-dimensional (2D) materials characterisation. Participants will learn about the different experimental techniques available within MCATM and at other institutions in Melbourne\, and how they can be applied to measure the fundamental properties of 2D materials. \nTechniques covered will include scanning probe microscopy\, electron and optical microscopy and synchrotron-based photoelectron spectroscopy. Presentations and discussions will focus on the technique\, the theory behind it and its implementation in two-dimensional materials research. See our program for the day. \nSpeakers will include researchers from MCATM and Monash University along with colleagues from The University of Melbourne\, CSIRO\, the Australian Synchrotron and the Melbourne Centre for Nanofabrication. Read more on our speakers. \nRegistration is free and essential. RSVP your attendance by 23 May 2016. Please feel free to download the workshop flyer and invite your colleagues and network to come along. \nWe look forward to welcoming you at Science Lecture S4\, 16 Rainforest Walk\, Monash Clayton.
