Quantum physics and nanoscience at Sydney
The announcement of our partnership with Microsoft is the latest of many nanotechnology and quantum science research landmarks made at the 爆料王. We showcase some recent highlights below.
We established Australia's first nanoscience facility
The 听(AINST) is the most advanced facility for nanoscience in the region. And it's .
We went online to answer quantum physics questions
Professor David Reilly answered the public's question via Facebook Live Q&As with the .
听
Our students are building 21st century technology
鈥淧hotonics is the science and technology of , which are particles of light." said PhD student Atiyeh Zarifi. 听鈥淭his area of research has critical applications for the way we build the future."
听
We've investigated the safety of nanotechnology
AINST researcher and 听is investigating the used in everything from foods to medicine.听
One of Australia鈥檚 most innovative听engineers works with us
Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology's听听is听championing a multidisciplinary approach to research and innovation in nanotechnology through her work as 鈥楥omputing, Communication and Security' theme leader in AINST.

We made a chemistry breakthrough on the path to a quantum computer
due to Dr Mohammad Choucair's breakthrough which demonstrated that it's possible for nanomaterials to operate at room temperature rather than at abolute zero experienced in deep space.
We've used light as early indicator of disease
AINST researchers working within the health and medicine flagship have used in tiny cell fragments called microvesicles to probe their role in a model of the body鈥檚 immunological response to bacterial infection.
We brought quantum science to TEDxSydney
In 2016 Professor Michael J Biercuk presented a talk on the quantum future at the Sydney Opera House as part of TEDxSydney. .
We're starting to control light at the nanoscale
Professor Ben Eggleton and Dr Andrea Blanco-Redondo presented at our Westmead campus on their research on light at the nanoscale.
We're making 'nanodiamond' machines a reality
Our quantum physicists have played a leading role in global research towards the imaging 鈥� linking the gold standard MRI with synthetic industrial diamonds for targeted drug delivery.
We've seen the quantum future...literally
In a , our physicists demonstrated that it is possible to overcome the most significant hurdle to building reliable quantum technologies.听
We put nanoscience on stage!
As part of the Sydney Science Festival in 2016 we presented Nanotainment. Professors Mike Biercuk, Zdenka Kuncic and David Reilly, and a number of students brought听nanoscience to life in an evening of song, dance and performance in the Great Hall.
