Description

Laboratory X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy for Victoria and Queensland. This project aims to establish laboratory X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) instruments in Victoria and Queensland, enhancing research nationwide by improving access to a vital characterization tool. Laboratory-based XAS will enable essential fast equipment access and long-term in situ studies. Two mirrored facilities—one at Swinburne University of Technology (Victoria) and the other at Queensland University of Technology (Queensland), each optimized for their stakeholders—will operate collaboratively, enhancing research impact through shared management, data handling, and expertise. The facilities will drive innovation across diverse fields including electro-catalysis, environmental science, critical minerals, and the circular economy.. Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 3402 - Inorganic Chemistry. Lead: Prof Rosalie Hocking
