Annemieke Mulders joined ANSTO in May 2006 in a joint position with the Applied Physics department of Curtin University of Technology in Perth.
She completed her PhD in 1998 at the former Interfaculty Reactor Institute of Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, focussing on magnetic properties of rare earth intermetallic compounds using neutron and muon techniques in addition to Mossbauer spectroscopy.
After working as an engineer at ASM Lithography she joined Monash University in Melbourne as a postdoctoral researcher studying two dimensional magnetism with neutron scattering techniques. From there she moved to Uppsala University in Sweden to pursue research with synchrotron radiation on magnetic nano-scaled systems. She continued her synchrotron experience at the Swiss Light Source exploring magnetic, orbital and charge order with resonant Bragg diffraction. After three and a half years in Europe she returned to Australia to take up her current position.
Her research interests are in the area condensed matter physics, exploiting neutron scattering and synchrotron based techniques. Her current research focus includes the atomic properties of hydrogen storage materials, charge and orbital order in ferro-electric compounds and self organized magnetic nano systems.
She is the author or co-author of ~40 referees scientific papers, and has presented approximately ten talks at international conferences.
