Realising three-dimensional stretchable structures of functional materials with a minimum footprint on Silicone polymer is highly desirable in soft robotics, stretchable electronics, and photonics. [...]
Researchers at TMOS, the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems, have taken an important step towards eliminating this discomfort. Their RMIT Universi [...]
Your smartwatch could soon save you from more than missed meetings with a new miniaturised ammonia gas sensor in development. The sensor—made from 2D liquid metal and fabricated using a simple, cost [...]
This year, I’ve been thinking quite a bit about what we need to do as a Centre as we head toward our mid-term review. All Centres of Excellence are reviewed by the Australian Research Council (ARC) [...]
One of the striking things about meta-optics is how quickly it is transitioning from the laboratory into real-world applications. This represents a precious opportunity for Australia. As it is a new a [...]
2022 was an important year for TMOS. Firstly, interstate and overseas travel opened for us to meet and undertake many activities in person. I will never forget the enthusiasm of all students and early [...]
Physicists working in the new field of meta-optics have made a breakthrough in the generation of polarization-entangled photon pairs that could allow quantum key distribution, a highly secure form of [...]
The University of Western Australia’s Microelectronics Research Group is celebrating Science Week with an engineering competition that merges 3D printing and holograms into one exciting challenge. [...]
TMOS Researchers are hopeful the new Ketowhistle could spare people living with diabetes from invasive tests and help them take control of their health. [...]
Diamond has long been the go-to material for quantum sensing due to its coherent nitrogen-vacancy centres, controllable spin, sensitivity to magnetic fields, and ability to be used at room temperature [...]
