Silicon irradiation
ANSTO is one of the world's leading providers of irradiation services for silicon ingots, which are used by the multimillion dollar electronics industry across Europe and Asia. Each year, ANSTO irradiates more than 50 tonnes of silicon.
Research behind gamma imaging system
The proof of concept for the approach used in the early development of the new gamma-ray imaging system has been published,
Fusion energy facility promises clean energy
Evaluating the impact of nanomaterials on health and the environment
ANSTO has put together a robust multidisciplinary approach to understanding the impacts of nanomaterials, investigating a common food additive, E171 titanium dioxide, used primarily as a colouring agent in everyday foods.
Crucial expertise in groundwater benefits Australia
Using nuclear techniques to help sustain Australia's finite groundwater resources

Finding a balance between killing cancer cells without damaging normal cells
Nanoprobe beamline (NANO) - under construction
The BRIGHT Nanoprobe beamline provides a unique facility capable of spectroscopic and full-field imaging. NANO will undertake high-resolution elemental mapping and ptychographic coherent diffraction imaging. Elemental mapping and XANES studies (after DCM upgrade) will be possible at sub-100 nm resolution, with structural features able to be studied down to 15 nm using ptychography.
Fine tuning materials for energy storage using architectural design and structural engineering
Energy researchers from UNSW have reported progress using controlled architectural design and structural engineering as a method to fine-tune materials to have simultaneous high power and high energy density for the electrochemical storage in portable devices.
