CIRCA'08 - leveraging state-of-the-art nanofabrication for electronics |
|
(Nanowerk News) Join global nanoelectronics and technology industry leaders by attending or sponsoring CIRCA 08.
|
|
CIRCA 08 is an industry-leading annual conference at the Gideon Putnam Hotel in Saratoga Springs, New York, and at the College of Nanoscale Science & Engineering's state-of-the-art, $4.2 billion Albany NanoTech Complex.
|
|
Purpose of CIRCA 08
|
|
The purpose of CIRCA 08 is to enable the convergence of logic, memory, sensors, power and wireless technologies by leveraging the state-of-the-art nano-fabrication know-how of leading device, equipment and material suppliers driving the nanoelectronics (semiconductor) industry.
|
|
CIRCA 08 will present strategies for shared development of cross-sector, university-enabled technology platforms and identify related teaming opportunities around industry-compliant manufacturing solutions common to the semiconductor, aerospace, energy and healthcare industries. These strategies will reduce the cost, time and risk to commercialize nanotechnology enabled products.
|
|
Targeted outcomes from the conference include:
|
|
1. To identify cross-sector technology roadmaps that are enabled by advanced computing, emerging nanofabrication technologies and supported by suppliers through vertically integrated teams of companies.
|
|
2. To promote the “Albany Integration Model” as the new paradigm for industry, university and government partnerships that provides industry with Quick-Turn-Around-Time (QTAT) 200mm & 300mm wafer pilot-prototyping capability. Discover the critical “missing link” for success in reducing the risk, cost and time to market of nanotechnology-enabled devices.
|
|
3. To develop tailored outreach strategies and commercialization pathways to be funded by industry, academia and government, along with leading convergence market players in the advanced computing systems, energy, wireless, aerospace/defense, and healthcare sectors.
