This week we were delighted to welcome two new PhD students to the group, Byron Gamble and Sean Egan. To mark the occasion, we had a group lunch at a long-standing and old group favourite, the vegetarian Indian restaurant Chutneys on Drummond St. more →

We are delighted that our work has been featured on the cover of Nano Letters (Vol. 25, Issue 38). The cover image (see below) shows an image we took of acceptor wave functions in silicon, showing for the first time how these states can be directly visualized with atomic-resolution scanning tunnelling microscopy. Along with accompanying tunnelling spectroscopy data, and theoretical calculations, our work provides critical insight into the anisotropy of these acceptor states, paving the way for defect-based quantum technologies in silicon. more →
