Our Research
Experimental Condensed Matter Physics is directed at the development of quantum technologies. Within each major research project there are a series of allied research programs that explore key fundamental issues in solid state and optical materials and devices for information processing and communications.
These major research projects build on our established expertise in the application of ion beam physics to the modification and analysis of advanced materials. We host a program staffed by personnel from the CSIRO Division of Exploration and Mining who share time on our 5 MeV Pelletron accelerator and collaborate on a program directed at the analysis of geological materials.
