Thrilled to witness groundbreaking strides in #semiconductor technology at Chalmers University of Technology! A huge shoutout to Professor Jan Stake, for being the sole recipient from Chalmers awarded the prestigious European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant in 2024, receiving about SEK 28 million for his innovative research. This achievement not only highlights Chalmers' commitment to pushing the boundaries of science but also underscores the critical importance of investing in technical excellence within strategic areas in Sweden. Jan's project on "far-infrared semiconductor electronics" aims to merge the benefits of two semiconductor technologies to explore the elusive part of the electromagnetic spectrum (2 - 5 THz). The goal? To develop an ultra-sensitive radio receiver for 4.7 THz that could dramatically enhance our understanding of atomic oxygen's presence in the upper atmosphere, paving the way for new scientific space instruments and deeper insights into atmospheric processes affecting our climate. This grant signifies more than just financial backing; it represents long-term stability and the opportunity to deeply engage in work that could lead to significant scientific breakthroughs. It's a testament to the power of curiosity-driven research and its potential to unravel mysteries that impact our world. Let's celebrate this incredible milestone and continue to support initiatives that propel Sweden to the forefront of technological innovation. Together, we can create a future where Swedish expertise leads global advancements in science and technology.

We develop MEMS flow sensors in a sort of unique collaboration of two research laboratories: the MEMS lab of Prof. Slava Krylov and our Turbulence Structure Laboratory One issue that we, as scientists, typically overlook during the ideation process is that real life is so far away from the turbulent flow conditions we imagine :) The photo below is from the FDA chapter on Icing https://lnkd.in/dTChKnkF

🌟 Big Milestone for FastSiC! We're thrilled to announce that our research team will be presenting at the internationally renowned IEEE ISPSD on June 3, 2024. Our paper, titled "Refining Accuracy: a Quasi-Floating Channel SPICE Model for Third-Quadrant SiC MOSFET Analysis in Both Planar and Trench Structures," marks a significant leap in SiC semiconductor modeling. This paper discusses a novel SPICE model structure designed specifically for the third-quadrant characteristics of SiC MOSFETs. Our model addresses both planar and trench structures, offering an innovative approach to enhancing the simulation accuracy and efficiency of power semiconductor devices. Join us at ISPSD 2024 to delve into the details of this groundbreaking research. Our team is excited to contribute to the ever-evolving world of semiconductor technology and to share our findings with fellow experts and enthusiasts in the field.

The effect of In(Ga)As/GaAs quantum dots on the optical loss of photonic crystal cavities "a systematic investigation of the optical losses in #GaAs #photonic crystal cavities with and without embedded self-assembled In(Ga)As #quantum_dots (QDs) to shed light on additional loss mechanisms related to the presence of the QDs. To clarify the role of the measurement method, we propose an experimental configuration where the optical properties can be evaluated simultaneously through reflection and #photoluminescence measurements...."

Your spot on the MIT 35 Under 35 list speaks volumes about the impact you're making in your field. But the real question is, how do you keep pushing boundaries after such a major recognition? You’ve worked under exceptional mentors, but now it's about how you’ll carve your own path and lead your group at Yale to the next big breakthrough. Are you looking to build on your previous work, or will you pivot into new, uncharted territories? Balancing recognition with the pressure to innovate is tricky—what’s your strategy to keep that momentum going without getting stuck in the shadow of early success? #InnovateForward #NextBigThing #EngineeringLeadership

GRAND CHALLENGES ACROSS THE SEMICONDUCTOR VALUE CHAIN IPSR-INTERNATIONAL 2024 SPRING MEETING June 5-7, 2024 MIT, Room 6-120, Cambridge, MA The IPSR-International: Integrated Photonics System Roadmap promotes synchronous, self-consistent solutions for the electronic-photonic manufacturing value chain. For the first time in more than 40 years, the semiconductor industry is confronted with limits to transistor size, to its environmental footprint, and to its workforce pipeline readiness. The ecological impact of exponential growth in performance and market size has introduced roadblocks for materials use, energy consumption and end-of-life disposal. FUTUR-IC is a global academic/industry alliance tasked to maintain continued progress of the Semiconductor Manufacturing and Information Systems industry with a 3-dimensional scaling paradigm for technology, ecology, and workforce solutions. The charter for this meeting is construction of the growth path for the next 40 years of Information Technology hardware, with concurrently engineered, technology-ecology-workforce solutions. REGISTRATION ENDS MAY 31st. https://lnkd.in/eZUEUaSD
