Zeiss Orion He Ion Beam System Survey
by Abrol, Sangeeta Saddul 08 Feb '22

08 Feb '22

Sent on behalf of Zhihong Chen Dear Colleagues, We invited a Zeiss scientist to give a presentation on the functionalities and applications of the Zeiss Orion He Microscope and Ion Beam tool. Please see the attached document including the link to the presentation and summary for the tool, prepared by Rosa Diaz. If you think your research can benefit from this tool and your group will likely become a user, please let me know and share the potential application and usage you envision. Since the installation of this tool, allocating staff time, and purchasing yearly service contracts will be costly, we would like to survey the user base before making the decision to acquire this tool or not. Please provide your feedback in the next week or two. Thank you, Zhihong Chen Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Interim Director of Birck Nanotechnology Center Purdue University 1205 West State Street West Lafayette, IN 47907-2057 Tel: (765)494-0772<tel:%28765%29494-0772> Fax: (765)496-8299<tel:%28765%29496-8299> Email: zhchen(a)purdue.edu<mailto:zhchen@purdue.edu>

SANDIA CINT Summer Research Program
by Anthrop, Heather L 14 Jan '22

14 Jan '22

Sandia National Lab and Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies (CINT) (see: https://cint.lanl.gov/) wishes to partner with Purdue to share the cost of hosting 2 Purdue students in summer 2022 for hands-on experience with world class CINT experimental facilities and subject matter experts. The purpose of this collaboration is to foster new opportunities for students and to widen the range of collaborations between Sandia staff and Purdue faculty and students. Sandia is seeking to partner with Purdue and share the $20K cost per student. The Purdue Discovery Park Undergraduate Research Internship (DURI) (see: https://www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/duri/) program has grown in success since its funding in 2015. Every year DURI solicits topics from faculty wishing to be matched with an undergrad for summer research in their lab. Students apply and the best candidates are selected for each topic. Often, DURI will adopt a special "theme" for a given summer, but will also still entertain faculty topic ideas across a wide spectrum. We see a partnership opportunity between the Sandia CINT and DURI in which for Summer 2022 we seek two stellar ideas from interested faculty that are relevant to CINT. Students who apply would eventually be down-selected to the two students who appear most qualified and best fit from the topic and the work at CINT/Sandia in Summer 2022. DURI would provide additional support for each of the two students, as well as i-GSDI. It is also hoped that the sponsoring faculty could (using their own funds to round out the total cost) travel out to CINT once during the summer to review the student's work and get to know CINT, Sandia, and the possibilities for further collaboration. The attached flyer invites you to a CINT information session on 1/18/22. Sign up via the flyer's link. Timing for CINT and DURI applications are a good fit. Aside from applying via DURI, Please alert mbobillo(a)purdue.edu<mailto:mbobillo@purdue.edu> if you are interested in the CINT/DURI combination for one of your students. Thank you, Mary Ann Mary Ann Bobillo Senior Operations Manager [IGSDI_H-Full-RGB_1 - email sig] O 765-496-6065 | M 765-426-3939 | www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/igsdi<http://www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/igsdi>

Kirk Director of the Birck Nanotechnology Center
by EVPRP - Theresa S. Mayer 16 Dec '21

16 Dec '21

To: Faculty and Staff, Birck Nanotechnology Center From: Theresa Mayer, Executive Vice President for Research and Partnerships RE: Kirk Director of the Birck Nanotechnology Center Date: December 16, 2021 Dear Colleagues, I am writing to let you know that Ali Shakouri, the Kirk Director of the Birck Nanotechnology Center, will soon begin the next phase of his career focusing on team building for large-scale extramural research programs. He will transition out of his role as director at the end of the semester. Ali joined Purdue as director in October of 2011 to lead one of the most advanced nanotechnology facilities on a university campus anywhere in the world. Under his leadership, the Birck Nanotechnology Center has grown beyond its original focus areas of nanoelectronics, photonics, and quantum science, to support a wide array of multidisciplinary nanotechology research and outreach on campus, including biotechnology, nanomedicine, pharma manufacturing, printed electronics and sensors. Today, Birck is home to 58 faculty research groups from eight schools and department across five colleges at Purdue. Additionally, more than 300 researchers from inside and outside of Purdue leveraged the state-of-the-art capabilities of the Scrifres Nanofabrication Laboratory and the other shared user facilities in Birck last year. This propelled external research expenditures that are credited to Birck to a record $30M in the last fiscal year. Over the last three years, Ali has been instrumental in engaging Birck faculty in a comprehensive study to define facilities and infrastructure needs to support for next-generation nanofabrication, materials and device characterization at Purdue. This work has helped position the university to be more competitive for federal and state funding in microelectronics and advanced packaging, quantum materials and devices, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and other critical technologies. After the transition, Ali will continue in his position as professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the College of Engineering, and will remain an active member of the Birck Nanotechnology Center and the SMART Films Consortium. He will also continue to serve as the PI of Purdue’s partnership with the Wabash Heartland Innovation Network, which was launched with a $38.9M grant from the Lilly Endowment to fuel prosperity in 10 counties in north-central Indiana by harnessing the power of IoT sensors in digital agriculture and next-generation manufacturing. Zhihong Chen, Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, will serve as the Interim Director of the Birck Nanotechnology Center until a national search for the next director concludes. Please join me in thanking Ali for his leadership as the director of Birck for the last 10 years, and in welcoming Zhihong to this role. Sincerely, Theresa Mayer
