Dear all, This is a reminder about the Sandia seminar today. 1:30 PM, Thursday, June 27, 2019 Seng-Liang Wang Hall, Room 1004 Please see below for a seminar and recruitment event from Sandia National Laboratories. You may be aware that Sandia National Laboratories is hiring a large number this next year. Dr. Nowlin is looking for a few potential candidates for staff positions in microelectronics technology development, reliability or radiation effects. If interested, you will have the opportunity to speak to Dr. Nowlin after his seminar. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Advanced Microsystems Radiation Effects R&D at Sandia National Laboratories Dr. Nathan Nowlin Sandia National Laboratories 1:30 PM, Thursday, June 27, 2019 Seng-Liang Wang Hall, Room 1004 Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) develops advanced technologies to ensure global peace. We are called upon by our Nation to conduct leading-edge national-security research in the physics, modeling, hardening, and hardness assurance, and development of advanced microsystems, microelectronics, photonics, optoelectronics, micro-electrical-mechanical, and heterogeneously integrated circuits in Silicon CMOS, compound semiconductors and other materials and devices in harsh radiation environments. Dr. Nowlin, from the Advanced Microsystems Radiation Effects department, will describe recent research his team has reported on the development of radiation hardened technologies manufactured at SNL, as well as new work in the radiation hardness assurance of advanced integrated circuits from leading commercial manufacturers. Dr. Nathan Nowlin has 25 years experience in advanced microelectronics and radiation effects research. In his early career, he co-discovered the Enhanced Low Dose Rate Sensitivity (ELDRS) effect in bipolar transistors. He then spent several years in the semiconductor industry developing high voltage Lateral Drain MOS (LDMOS) process technology and leading yield engineering for a high-speed BiCMOS technology. In the early 2000’s, he went to work for Mission Research Corporation, where he led the development of a 90nm Radiation Hardened By Design (RHBD) library and SRAM compiler for spacecraft Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) designs. In his 10 years at Sandia, Dr. Nowlin has led research and development efforts for radiation hardening by design, advanced circuit modeling of radiation effects, and product engineering for high reliability, high consequence systems. Dr. Nowlin was a product realization team lead for 10 ASIC products, developing requirements, demonstrating prototypes, and initiating production for all aspects from wafer manufacturing, packaging, test, reliability, and radiation performance. His efforts enabled Sandia to successfully begin its largest ASIC production mission in its history. Dr. Nowlin now leads the Advanced Microsystems Radiation Effects department where he is responsible for trust and radiation hardness assurance of microsystems for national security applications. Dr. Nowlin is a Senior Member of the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society (NPSS), has authored or co-authored 21 papers, and serves on the organizing committees for the Nuclear and Space Radiation Effects Conference (NSREC) and the Hardened Electronics And Radiation Technologies (HEART) technical interchange meeting.

Updates from BNC Faculty Meeting (June 2019)
by Shakouri, Ali 25 Jun '19

25 Jun '19

Dear Colleagues, Please see below the topics that we discussed at the Birck Faculty meeting last Wednesday June 19th. There are exciting new developments. We have added >$10M in new equipment and facility in the last couple of years and our faculty are bringing record level of funding. We have an opportunity to take Birck to the next level as a world-class research center. However, this won’t go very far without active participation of faculty. Unfortunately, we only had a small number of colleagues at the meeting last week. I guess the timing was not good due to conference travels, etc. Please go over the presentation and see how you and your group could contribute to build a vibrant community at Birck. Examples of faculty engagement include coming to weekly BNC faculty lunches, lab forums or student Friday coffee hour during the academic year, participating in the planning for Birck Annex, helping to identify new state-of-the-art tools and unique capabilities that benefit multiple groups (write NSF MRI, DURIP or other instrumentation grants), taking the lead or helping new interdisciplinary initiatives that can be the basis of major center proposals (we need to build momentum before call for proposals for NSF (STC, ERC, MRSEC), DOE or similar centers or training grants are out). You can also encourage your students to participate at NSAC and their activities, display competition, outreach, etc. New Wiki tool is a great way to share comments and recipes improving our operation. When you prepare and submit proposals through SPS, please remember to acknowledge Birck and Discovery Park for whatever % of the work which is done here. This doesn’t take any credits from your home department but it is one of the metrics that shows our activities to EVPRP. I look forward to hear your suggestions and comments. Don’t hesitate to set up a time to meet one-to-one to go over the material below or discuss any ideas (just send me an email and cc-Jaime). Cheers, Ali BNC Faculty Meeting June 2019 The link to the presentation material can be found at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0in6qoqnndd6hvh/BNC_Faculty%20June%202019print.pd… * New Staff (pp. 3-6) * Planning for Birck Annex (p. 7) * Parking (p.8) * Update from Associate Director for Operations (pp. 9-25) * Lab Forum * Wiki (Training Queues, Equipment Status) * Microcredentials * Materials and Process Compatibility initiative * New rates * New equipment planning * Update from Associate Director for Research (pp. 26-32) * Upcoming proposal opportunities in quantum * Potential partnership with Oak Ridge * Updates from Research Scientists (pp. 33-39) * Outreach activities (pp. 40-43) * nanoDays, manufacturing camp, grand parents university * NSAC activities (pp.44-45) * Birck Strategic Action Plan (pp. 46-52) * BNC Faculty Seminars, Imaging/Atrium Display Competition, Shark Tank Story telling Competition, Workshop on Computational and Quantum Imaging, Purdue 2050 Conference of the Future, etc. * Financial Update (pp. 53-62) * New user training, Recharge income/subsidies, top users, BNC grants
