Description

Photophysical Pathways in Next-Generation X-ray Detectors. The sensitive detection of X-rays embodies an important research area, being motivated by a common desire to minimise the radiation doses required for detection. Inspired by the emergence of novel solution-processed high-Z semiconductors, this project aims to develop a complimentary in-house testing platform to uncover and characterise next-generation X-ray sensitive materials. Technological readiness will be accelerated via strategic evaluation criteria, ensuring industrial compliance. By leading domestic and international collaboration with X-ray science research partners, this project will validate the commercial potential of target technology platforms and represent an entirely new research line within Australian materials science. . Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 4009 - Electronics, Sensors and Digital Hardware. Lead: Dr Julian Steele
