The
nanoelectronic systems engineering research at NPS advances the state of the art
in electronic, microelectromechanical, and nanotechnology technologies for
military applications. The NPS faculty are involved with DoD research agencies
and industry in research and development for space, strategic and robust
military hardware needs.
Past and
present efforts include 90nm and 130nm Si technologies, advanced compound
semiconductor systems (InP, GaN), development of simulation tools with industry,
multijunction solar cell demonstrations, high thermal capacity substrates,
end-of-life examination of MEMs and nanotechnologies. Much of our research and
development has been implemented into DoD space systems, strategic programs, and
many military systems.
Our
capability includes a new nanotechnology lab, carbon nanotube fabrication, MEMs
release capability, environmental chambers, thermal probe stations, high
frequency probers, full suite of TCAD/design software from several industry
leaders, solar simulation sources, radiation sources (Flash X-ray and LINAC),
and noise measurement labs.
