“New ways to see” - Reimagining Electron Microscopy . Understanding materials at the level of individual atoms can be critical for understanding their properties. This program aims to develop new ways to measure the structure of matter at the level of atoms by reimagining the fundamental concepts behind an electron microscope. This will enable subtle classes of structures in materials to be seen, that were previously not visible. This new knowledge will provide fundamental insight into the properties of materials and how they can be engineered to deliver new functions. Expected outcomes include a microscope with unprecedented sensitivity to atomic scale structures and new understanding of material’s properties. . Scheme: Australian Laureate Fellowships.
