The Superconducting, Magnetic and Electronic Materials group focuses on magnetic nanomaterials and nanocomposites for biomedical application.
This is placeholder copy. This research group focuses on magnetic nanomaterials and nanocomposites for biomedical application, and the development of nano-structured engineered low-activation boron-11 based isotopic high temperature superconductors for the next generation low-cost DEMO fusion reactors.
Research areas and ongoing projects:
Porous magnetic nanomaterials and nanocomposites for biomedical application
This is a multidisciplinary project for the development of a number of monodispersed, biocompatible and superparamagnetic porous nanoparticles with high surface area and various surface functionalisations suitable for the use in biological (in vitro and in vivo) experiments.
Superconducting materials and discovery of low activation superconducting materials
This highly interdisciplinary project has been initiated in collaborating with the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO), Australian National University (ANU) and International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), France, CERN, Switzerland, Hyper Tech, USA, QUT and University of Wollongong (UOW) for the development of nano-structured engineered low-activation boron-11 based isotopic high temperature superconductors for the next generation low-cost DEMO fusion reactors.
