SUMMARY:Multi-Technique analysis with the Thermo Scientific Nexsa XPS spectrometer
DESCRIPTION:Presenter \nDr Richard White\, Sales and Marketing Director\, Nano-scale Material Analysis\, Thermo Fisher Scientific \nAbstract \nAdvanced materials present ever increasing challenges to the analytical scientist. Composite materials built from nanostructures or ultra-thin films\, often with complex chemistries present\, are now required in a broad range of applications\, and achieving full characterization is rarely managed using only one analysis method. To maintain confidence in the results from the utilization of several different methods\, it is advantageous to be able to perform experiments on the same platform. Ideally\, this should be without having to move the sample between several instruments\, removing the need for additional registration or processing to ensure that the data is being collected from the same position. \nFor surface analysis\, it has been common for many years to incorporate related analysis techniques onto the same instrument. For example\, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) systems are commonly equipped with UV light sources to facilitate investigation of additional properties of materials via ultra-violet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). The ion source that is typically used for sample cleaning and depth profiling can also be used for low energy ion scattering (LEIS or ISS)\, providing more surface sensitive elemental composition information than can be delivered from XPS alone. \nIn this presentation we will discuss the strengths of this combined\, in-situ approach to surface analysis\, illustrated with examples from a range of applications including carbon nanomaterials\, microelectronics and battery materials.

SUMMARY:Nanoscale light control for sensor applications and photonics
DESCRIPTION:Eureka Prize winner and ANFF-VIC Tech Ambassador\, Prof Saulius Juodkazis will be speaking at MCN on 26 October 2018. \nSaulius\, from the Centre for Micro-Photonics\, Swinburne University of Technology will discuss his exciting research into sensors and their fabrication. \nView the flyer here \n\n\n\nAbstract: Future light-based technologies will have strong presence in high precision nano-/micro- fabrication and sensors. For light-matter interactions occurring on atomic and molecular level we still need to develop better tools to control light at nanoscale via nano-fabrication and manipulation of nano- objects. In this talk our recent advances in high precision nanofabrication using 3D approaches and combining standard cleanroom tools with laser direct writing capabilities will be presented. \nCombination of electron beam lithography (EBL) with post-processing of nanoparticels with Ga-ion milling opens a possibility of sub-20 nm direct write of nano-inscriptions on nanoparticles. Arrays of identical nanoparticles were fabricated with high delity and with uniform nano-features. This approach was\nkey to make chiral plasmonic nanoparticles which show strong optical dichroism and can be used for optically driven motors and nano-tweezers. Controlled resizing of ion-milled nanopores over the range of sizes from 100 nm to several nanometers in nano-membranes is achieved using electron beam scanning. \nSurface charging which is a common problem in applications of ion milling and electron imaging is resolved with co-illumination of deep UV light whose photons have energy larger than the electron\nwork function for a given material. EBL and IBL can be both optimized for a high throughput for simple sample geometries. 3D laser fabrication of micro-optical elements and nano-textured surfaces adds new applications in lab-on-chip and sensing. \nIf you would be interested in a tour of the MCN following the event please contact Tom Eddershaw

SUMMARY:Tech ops talk – Bose-Einstein condensation of exciton-polaritons in 2D materials
DESCRIPTION:During MCN’s weekly Tech Ops meeting\, FLEET researcher Tinghe Yun will discuss the in-kind project being conducted by ANFF-VIC Technology Ambassador (TA)\, Prof Qialiang Bao. \nAbstract: The project is aiming at the excitonic dissipationless system\, towards the room temperature superfluidity. Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC)\, which is the physical phenomena of bosonic particle coherence\, is regarded as the typical superfluidy. Exciton-polaritons\, the result of strong coupling between photon and exciton\, is a kind of bosonic quasiparticles\, and the BEC of these particles in DBR cavities is yet to be discovered. \nBackground: ANFF-VIC TAs use their considerable expertise to create new processes that benefit the ANFF-VIC user community and undergo in-kind cooperative activities reflecting the current and emerging needs of researchers in their respective fields. \nTinghe’s talk\, entitled “Bose-Einstein condensation of exciton-polaritons in 2D materials”\, will cover the broader scope of this project\, as well as how it will benefit the ANFF-VIC user community.

SUMMARY:Engineering light-matter interactions at the nanoscale
DESCRIPTION:MCN is delighted to welcome ANFF-VIC Tech Ambassador\, Prof Ken Crozier and members of his team to discuss recent investigations into light-matter interactions. \nKen will be joined by Benjamin Craig\, Vivek Raj Shrestha\, Ming Ye\, and Jasper Cadusch as they delve into four of the team’s projects. \nAbstract: \nWe provide glimpses into four research projects of the Crozier Group\, whose common theme is engineering light-matter interactions at the nanoscale. \nIn the first\, we demonstrate mid-infrared plasmonic filters. We experimentally determine the spectrum of a mid-infrared light source using an algorithm whose inputs are the total power transmitted by each filter and the transmission spectrum of each filter. \nIn the second\, we demonstrate a graphene-metal metasurface for unpolarized long wavelength infrared light with electrically-tunable reflectance. By applying a gate voltage\, we shift the wavelength of a resonant reflectance dip centered at ~9.4 micron by~156 nm. \nIn the third\, we propose a hybrid metal/dielectric metasurface that functions as a mid-infrared magnetic mirror. It consists amorphous silicon cuboids on gold. The physical mechanism is explained by image theory. Measured reflection spectra agree with simulations. \nIn the fourth\, we experimentally demonstrate a microspectrometer comprising twenty silicon photodetector pixels\,whose responsivities are engineered via nanostructured fishnet patterns. We computationally reconstruct the spectrum of light that illuminates the chip from the measured pixel photocurrents. \nRegister on Eventbrite

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.
