9:30 am - 4:30 pm
Scientists need to be able to describe their work in a way that’s quick, clear, compelling, and appropriate to their audience. Researchers from three ARC Centres of Excellence will spend a day learning the subtle art of the pitch, practicing on each other and on the group. Researchers will develop a range of pitches to Read More

11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Unconventional Superconductivity: From deconfined gauge theory to artificial graphene Dr. Harley Scammell, Harvard University, US All welcome! The seminar flyer can be downloaded clicking on this link Abstract: Unconventional superconductivity, which relies on non-phonon mediated pairing, typically emerges from nearby strongly correlated magnetic phases. However, the interplay between superconductivity and magnetism greatly complicates the theoretical Read More

3D graphene metamaterial platform for on-chip photonic device Dr Yunyi Yang Centre for Micro-Photonics, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia All welcome! The seminar flyer can be downloaded here Abstract: Two-dimensional (2D) materials, especially for graphene-based materials, have attracted significant research interests due to their unique optical and electrical properties. These properties are only remained Read More
FLEET Colloquium: Dimi Culcer – Resonant photovoltaic effect in doped magnetic topological materials
-
4 Sep 2019
3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Resonant photovoltaic effect in doped magnetic topological materials A/Prof Dimi Culcer University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia All welcome! The seminar flyer can be downloaded here. Abstract: The non-linear optical response of clean undoped semiconductors contains a static intrinsic term – the shift current. We have recently shown that when Kramers degeneracy is lifted, the Read More

Jackson Smith, RMIT Abstract: In two-dimensional (2D) materials with honeycomb lattices, such as graphene, spin-orbit coupling is predicted to cause the existence of edge states [1]. The 2D allotropes of bismuth are no exception to this prediction. Although bulk bismuth has been shown to be a topologically trivial semi-metal [2], the 2D allotropes of bismuth Read More
