High-Resolution Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy (2023-2024)

Abstract

This project aims to establish a national network for Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) Imaging and Spectroscopy, with microscopic and molecular resolution. This new instrumentation, to be integrated into three facilities, 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 of fields including next generation photovoltaics and batteries, develops structural biology methods for in-cell characterisation, provides micro-dosimetry imaging of radicals from radionuclei, and provides capability to advance research using metal-based catalysts in synthetic and biological systems.
