FLEET is pleased to co-organised inSTEM with 9 other ARC Centres of Excellence this September 2023 in Naarm. inSTEM is a networking and career development conference for people from marginalised or underrepresented groups in STEM, and allies. It is an initiative of the STEM-focused ARC Centres of Excellence, open to all higher degree research students Read More Dr. Ying Liu, School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering, The University of Sydney Missed the seminar? Catch up on YouTube Ferroelectric and antiferroelectric materials are characterized by intrinsic electric dipoles, which arise due to the spatial displacement of positive and negative charge centres. The electric dipoles are intimately coupled to the atomic lattice. Under Read More Hear from Australian tech investors reinventing how researchers become entrepreneurs Join us to hear from Alezeia Brown (Main Sequence Ventures) and Clare Birch (Blackbird Ventures) about two exciting new ways for researchers in deep tech to become entrepreneurs and commercialise their research. Main Sequence Ventures have pioneered Venture Science – a repeatable way to grow Read More Prof. Flore Kunst, Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, Germany. Catch up on Youtube While topological phases of matter have predominantly been studied for isolated Hermitian systems, a recent shift has been made towards considering these phases in the context of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. Non-Hermitian topological phenomena reveal an enrichment of the phenomenology of Read More Prof Geetha Balakrishnan, Department of Physics, University of Warwick. In person: Seminar room G29, New Horizons Bld, Monash University, CLAYTON Also shared via Zoom ID 860 1904 3236 / passcode 12345 Recently, there has been considerable interest in the physics of magnetic skyrmions due to their huge potential for use in spintronic devices, such as Read More Patjaree Aukarasereenont, PhD candidate, RMIT Missed the seminar? Catch up on FLEET YouTube The surfaces of liquid metals can serve as a platform to synthesise two-dimensional materials. By exploiting the self-limiting Cabrera-Mott oxidation reaction that takes place at the surface of liquid metals exposed to ambient air, an ultrathin oxide layer can be synthesised and Read More Dr Karen Livesey, University of Newcastle In-person: G29, New Horizons Bld, 20 Research Way, Monash University, CLAYTON Light lunch provided after presentation Missed the talk? Catch up on FLEET’s YouTube Skyrmions are tiny swirls in the local magnetization that can exist in thin films at room temperatures. They were only imaged for the first time Read More Members & Affiliates Only Event FLEET’s annual workshop is our one opportunity each year for all Centre researchers to gather together and share research outcomes and progress. This year, #FLEET2023 will be held at Mantra Lorne, just over 2hrs southwest of Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road. We look forward to seeing everyone IN PERSON this Read More Päivi Törmä, Department of Applied Physics, Aalto University, Finland Catch up on YouTube We have found that superconductivity and superfluidity have a connection to quantum geometry [1,2]. Namely, the superfluid weight in a multiband system has a previously unnoticed component which we call the geometric contribution. It is proportional to the minimal quantum metric of Read More Assistant Professor Kevin M. Daniels, University of Maryland Missed the seminar? Watch it on FLEET’s YouTube channel Two-dimensional materials possess unique mechanical, optical, and electronic properties that can exceed those of their bulk crystal counterparts. For example, graphene, a two-dimensional material composed of a single layer of carbon atoms, exhibits exceptionally high carrier mobilities (~100,000 Read More
