New fabrication facilities for van-der-Waals heterostructures

Nanostructure fabrication to support FLEET research FLEET’s research to achieve zero-dissipation electrical current depends on the design of key nanoscale structures. In 2017, Research theme B leader Lan Wang, and PhD student Cheng Tan, developed a method to build such nanoscale structures, required to achieve zero- dissipation electrical current. These nanostructures, comprising two…

Research theme 1 –Topological materials

PROF ALEX HAMILTON Leader, Research theme 1, UNSW Website FLEET’s topological materials research theme has sought to achieve electrical current flow with near-zero resistance, based on a paradigm shift in the understanding of condensed-matter physics and materials science: the advent of topological insulators. Unlike conventional insulators, which do not conduct electricity at…
