Organisation profile
The main research projects in the computational condensed matter physics group at UNE focus on designing efficient nanomaterials for diverse applications.
Research themes
Our research includes the computational design of nanomaterials for clean and renewable energy storage, such as hydrogen storage, and for rechargeable metal-ion and metal-sulfur batteries. Another major area of our research involves designing nanosensors for environmental protection and nanobiosensors for early disease diagnostics. We aim to revolutionise diagnostics by capturing specific volatile compounds in human breath to detect early-stage cancers, Alzheimer’s, depression, diabetes, liver cirrhosis, kidney diseases, and more.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
-
SDG 2 Zero Hunger -
SDG 3 Good Health and Well-being -
SDG 6 Clean Water and Sanitation -
SDG 7 Affordable and Clean Energy -
SDG 8 Decent Work and Economic Growth -
SDG 9 Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure -
SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production -
SDG 13 Climate Action -
SDG 14 Life Below Water -
SDG 15 Life on Land
