Concept illustration of non-radiative recombination, in which electron-hole interaction at a defect in the atomic structure results in heat, rather than light, being emitted. Jim Speck will use his Vannevar Bush Award to advance understanding of the physics of such interactions. Illustration by Fangzhou Zhao, Van de Walle group.
The $3-million award will enable investigation of little-understood physics in gallium-nitride devices.
NSF ExFAB BioFoundry staff and senior participants from UC Santa Barbara (l to r) - Oliver Vining, Elaine Kirschke, Jean-Marie Volland, Nathalie Elisabeth, Sherylle Mills Englander, Max Wilson, Michelle O'Malley, Joel Rothman, Niels Volkmann, Carolyn Mills.
UC Santa Barbara, UC Riverside, and Cal Poly Pomona receive a six-year, $22 million grant to establish a first-of-its-kind biofoundry.
A slide was shown at DEF CON announcing Shellphish as a semifinalist and a winner of $2 million.
The team was one of seven (from a field of forty-two) to emerge from the semifinal round.
No events scheduled (yet).
