Condensed matter physics has produced the technologies and materials that fuelled the digital and communications revolution. The scientific importance of condensed matter physics is indicated by the fact that ten Nobel prizes have been awarded for work in this field since 1990. This proposal brings together world leading chemists, experimental physicists and theoretical physicists from Australia, USA and UK to work on highly interdisciplinary projects designed to discover how quantum mechanics leads to the novel properties of chemically complex materials. Such materials will be of central importance to the technologies of the future such as computer memories and the superconducting magnets in hospital MRI machines.

凝结物理学生产了助长数字和通信革命的技术和材料。凝聚态物理学的科学重要性表明了以下事实：自1990年以来，十项诺贝尔奖已被授予该领域的工作。该提议将来自澳大利亚，美国和英国的世界领先的化学家，实验物理学家和理论物理学家汇集在一起​​，从而高度高度工作。跨学科项目旨在发现量子力学如何导致化学复杂材料的新特性。这种材料对未来技术（例如计算机记忆和医院MRI机器的超导磁铁）至关重要。
