Thermophysical characterizations at nanometre scale are of both scientific and industrial interest. Not only is it of fundamental scientific importance, it is also driven by needs of modern technology associated with the continuous decrease of sizes in materials science applications including for the enhancement of energy conversion efficiency and in microelectronic devices. This application aims to strengthen Australian research activities in the development of advanced materials, energy technologies and biomedical components through the purchase of state-of-the-art Scanning Thermal Microscope and Potential-Seeback Microprobe for thermophysical analysis of low-dimensional and nanostructured materials and biomedical components.
