The Newcastle ANFF Hub is located at the Newcastle Institute for Energy and Resources (NIER) on the Callaghan Campus of the University of Newcastle. It is the only facility within an Australian university that is producing advanced materials at commercial-ready scale.
The Newcastle ANFF Hub is part of the ANFF Materials Node which brings together specific strengths in the fabrication of hard and soft materials, particularly organic and inorganic electronic materials, and offers extensive and unique capabilities in the design, development and fabrication of nanostructured electronic materials and devices.
The Node includes expertise and facilities from both the University of Newcastle and the University of Wollongong, with input from the following groups:
- Translational Research Initiative for Cell Engineering and Printing (TRICEP)
- ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES)
- UoW Intelligent Polymer Research Institute (IPRI)
- University of Centre for Organic Electronics
The broader ANFF Network consists of 8 Nodes spread across Australia, providing access to more than 500 individual pieces of equipment across 21 sites. Each of the ANFF Nodes specialises in a different field as outlined here:
