Pressure is an important thermodynamic variable, but its effects on chemical systems have been explored to a much smaller extent than that of temperature. High pressure has been shown to induce significant geometrical, configurational and conformation changes within chemical systems.

The development of diamond anvil cells (DACs) in recent years has allowed the study of chemical systems under...

Oral

The macromolecular (MX) beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron are mixed use between the structural biology (PX) and chemical crystallography (CX) communities. Since commissioning the high throughput MX1 bending magnet and the MX2 microfocus undulator beamlines have proven very successful for both communities.

With the deployment of upgrades to the optics, endstation and detectors, the...

Organic-based high-performance semiconductor research has attracted significant attention not long ago because of their promising performance. Since the morphology of the solution-processed conductive polymers, used in organic semiconductors, affects the intrinsic charge transport characteristics and mechanical properties, several strategies have been searched to control molecular ordering and...
