Diversity in STEM is something many organisations are striving toward. While progress has been made, there is still a long way to go. As awareness grows of how intersectionality compounds the barriers [...]
A new nanoengineered approach promises to make infrared spectrometers dramatically cheaper, more compact, and more robust — by replacing bulky moving optics with a heat-tunable metasurface. [...]
Dr Lukas Wesemann (University of Melbourne), Associate Professor Brad Clarke, and collaborators from the University of Stuttgart and TMOS have developed a low-cost “optical sieve” that detects nan [...]
An international team of researchers has developed a first-of-its-kind method to cheaply, portably, and powerfully detect harmful nanoplastic particles—advancing global efforts to understand their i [...]
Researchers from TMOS and ANU have developed breakthrough multilayer metalenses that bring powerful, lightweight optics to smartphones, drones, and satellites. This scalable meta-optics design overcom [...]
TMOS is pioneering next-gen optical tech using metasurfaces to create ultra-thin, efficient devices for AR, healthcare, and quantum communications. [...]
The theme of this year’s TMOS Annual Report, From Foundations to Frontiers, captures precisely what makes this Centre of Excellence so inspiring. TMOS continues to lay solid scientific foundations t [...]
As we move further into a decade defined by global uncertainty and rapid technological change, one thing is clear: the nations that will lead are those that invest in foundational scientific research [...]
ANU and TMOS researchers have developed an InGaP metasurface that generates entangled photon pairs with tunable precision — a major step for quantum communication and hyperentangled systems. [...]
