PhD Scholarship Monash University Australia
PhD Scholarship – DNA-Directed Nanofabrication – Melbourne – Australia (Clayton (Melbourne) Australia): Our team at Monash University is developing new nanofabrication concepts in collaboration with the Molecular Foundry based at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories.
Current micro and nanofabrication methods (e.g. silicon chip production) are based on top-down approaches using photolithographic methods. Alternatively devices can be assembled through bottom-up approaches using nanoscale building blocks of metals, semiconductors and insulators. Our group aims to develop methods that rely on molecular self-recognition to direct the assembly of nanoparticle building blocks into desired nanostructures. Short synthetic strands of DNA selectively bind to their complementary counterparts through Watson-Crick base-pairing. We will use this highly selective recognition behaviour to direct the assembly of particles to larger functional structures with unique optical, electrical and mechanical properties (plasmonics, solar cells).
ABOUT US:
The project described above is hosted by the Australian Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES, www.electromaterials.edu.au) based at Monash University (www.monash.edu.au).
Monash University is Australia’s largest university with over 55,000 students on 8 campuses. It was ranked number 33 by the ‘Times Higher Education Supplement’ in its annual ranking of the world’s top 200 universities in 2005. Monash has the leading School of Chemistry in Australia. Our Clayton campus is located in immediate proximity to Australia’s first synchrotron and the Melbourne Centre for Nanofabrication that will open its doors in 2009.
THE PHD PROGRAM:
The doctoral degree at Monash University is a ‘research only’ degree with a 3 year duration.
