A Multidisciplinary Research Group and Activities

• The discovery, optimisation and characterisation of new thin film solid-state materials using combinatorial (compositional gradient) multisource evaporation methods

• The high throughput screening of new thin film materials with respect to intrinsic properties, and their properties when composite with other materials in devices

• The use of multisource evaporative methods for the fabrication of micro-fabricated device structures

• The correlation of composition, structure, interface and morphology with function

• Providing support and partnership with academic research groups in the development of materials and composites for electronic, photonic, sensor, energy harvesting, energy conversion and energy storage devices
