The Coretec Group Inc. has partnered with The University of Adelaide to develop a glass to be used in The Coretec Group's CSpace, a 3D static volumetric display technology. This project will be jointly funded by The University of Adelaide. The University of Adelaide's Prof. Heike Ebendorff-Heidepriem, Deputy Director of the Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing (IPAS) and Director of the Optofab Adelaide Hub at the Australian National Fabrication Facility (ANFF) will lead the research.

Prof. Ebendorff-Heidepriem is one of the world's foremost researchers in the field of the development of novel optical glasses, fibers, surface functionalization, and sensing approaches. This research project will examine alternative low-phonon energy glasses such as tellurite and germanate glasses that have a greater potential for large-scale manufacturing. The development of these glasses will be led by Dr. Yunle Wei, who is a glass scientist in Prof Ebendorff-Heidepriem's team.

The project will include characterization of the performance for volumetric display. Using these glasses in the C-Space image chamber could lead to a broader range of the C-Space applications.
