SUMMARY:Microelectronics Semiconductor Research Community Virtual Workshop (CHIPS Act of 2022)
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, September 8 and Friday\, September 9\, 2022\, from 12PM to 3:30PM (EST)\, please join to discuss ideas surrounding semiconductor workforce development and academic infrastructure and to hear the speakers’ perspectives about trends in semiconductor R&D and advanced manufacturing. \nThe two-day online workshop aims to examine how the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure can interact with the various components of the CHIPS Act of 2022.  The workshop content will be used to create a report that could inform CHIPS funding as it relates to USICA\, NSTC\, NAMP\, the Microelectronics Commons\, NSF Engines\, and FuSe. The workshop will combine invited talks by leading researchers in academia and industry with panel discussions to develop concrete action items to address the CHIPS initiative. \nRegistration Link in Details Box Below via Stanford University. \nMore details about the workshop can be found in the PDF attachment linked below.

SUMMARY:Like Driving a Car: Acquiring Quality SEM/FESEM Images in Different Situations
DESCRIPTION:Getting good SEM/FESEM images is dependent on both the sample conditions (conductivity\, bulk vs. thin film\, etc) and the instrument’s imaging parameters (e.g.\, beam voltage\, beam current\, working distance\, detector\, etc). Over the course of training and interacting with hundreds of different FESEM users Dr. Liu has observed the most important things a new user needs to know without overwhelming them with theory and trivial operational routines. This allows new users to conceptualize and visualize the electron beam behavior relative to the observed imaging. This webinar will simplify and explain the complex nature of SEM/FESEM imaging by drawing analogies to common things in everyday life such as writing with a pencil and driving a car. \n \nSpeaker: Bangzhi Liu\, PhD \nBio: Dr. Bangzhi received his Ph.D. from Michigan State University and worked as a postdoctoral research scholar in the department of Materials Science and Engineering at Penn State University. He is currently employed by Penn State Materials Research Institute as an assistant research professor. He has over 20 years’ experience in materials characterization (FESEM\, TEM\, Auger\, etc) and thin film deposition (PVD and ALD). He has authored and coauthored over 40 peer-reviewed journals. \nRegistration:  \nhttps://psu.zoom.us/webinar/register/3516565307447/WN_N_g1Bpv_Qui59PHPfHm7FA

SUMMARY:The CHIPS Act Has Passed: Now What?
DESCRIPTION:Funding for the CHIPS Act has been signed into law\, providing tremendous opportunities for semiconductor industry organizations to expand production in the U.S. Although additional guidance from the Departments of Defense and Commerce is required around the specific application form and process\, it’s critical for organizations to understand the programs\, if their organization qualifies\, and how to participate. \nREGISTER Here for the September 21 webinar starting at 9am Pacific. \nSpecific topics to be covered include: \n\nAn overview of all the opportunities available for participants\, including in workforce development and R&D\nHow funding will be administered including notional RFP process details\, deadlines and which government agencies will manage the process\nSetting your organization up for success including selecting the right partners to advance your project\n\nCan’t make it to our webinar? Be sure to register so you can receive the recording and presentation material after the event. If you prefer a personal introduction to this topic\, please register for a 1:1 follow-up in the registration form. \nSPEAKERS \n\nJohn Cooney – Vice President of Global Public Policy & Advocacy\, SEMI\nJoe Stockunas – President\, SEMI Americas\nTom Stringer – National Leader of Site Selection & Business Incentives\, BDO USA\, LLP\nThe Honorable Ian Steff – President & CEO\, mySilicon Compass

SUMMARY:Zoom in on Microscopy: NanoEducators Quarterly Forum Sept meeting
DESCRIPTION:Zoom in on microscopy and its connections to chemistry\, physics\, biology\, and engineering using hands-on virtual research tools!\n\nThis session will offer an overview about nanoscience and how microscopy tools such as scanning electron microscopes (SEM) can be brought directly into your classes remotely. Dr. Zac Gray of the NSF-supported Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge (NACK) Network will show attendees how to conduct a remote session with an SEM and image biological and manufactured samples. He will demonstrate how nanoscience can be used as a tool to explore many STEM subjects. The session will end with a tutorial on how to sign up for a free remote session through the NACK website.\n\n \n\n\nThe NanoEducators Quarterly Forum provides K-12 teachers with opportunities for community building\, ideas for classroom experiments\, and engagement with nanotechnology researchers. \n\n \nSeptember 27\, at 5:30 pm EDT. Registration: https://tinyurl.com/ypmwwrtv\n\n\n  \nDownload the NanoEducator PDF flyer here. \nImage Courtesy of Omni Nano and Marco Curreli.
