High-Resolution Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy

This project aims to establish a national network for Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) Imaging andSpectroscopy, with microscopic and molecular resolution. This new instrumentation, to be integrated into threefacilities, will establish high spatial resolution EPR imaging, up-grade critical spectrometer detection sensitivity,provide photo-optic EPR and establish critical capability in Victoria. The equipment impacts a diverse range offields including next generation photovoltaics and batteries, develops structural biology methods for in-cellcharacterisation, provides micro-dosimetry imaging of radicals from radionuclei, and provides capability toadvance research using metal-based catalysts in synthetic and biological systems.
