IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar: More than Microchips
Since the invention of the transistor in 1947 and the integrated circuit in 1958, microchips have fueled scientific advancements, manufacturing innovations, and economic growth. Today, DARPA’s Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) will advance the next generation of microsystems to disrupt the underlying technology, disrupt current manufacturing, and create new markets. This requires unique insight to discover fundamentally new ways of creating advanced circuits that will dramatically alter and exceed the current state-of-the-art in microsystems. This will involve: - Using the power of light at the microscale in three dimensions with advanced photonics; - Harnessing quantum mechanical phenomena for sensors and computers that break traditional classical limits; - Developing a toolbox of organic and biological molecules and hybrid bioelectronics that will leverage living system phenomena and connect back to traditional microsystems; - And advancing technologies for affordable, rapid, and sustainable microsystems fabrication to enable a new domestic manufacturing ecosystem that leverages commercial scaling and drives strong economic growth. Join Dr. Whitney Mason to learn about how DARPA is reimagining microsystems, and upcoming opportunities to engage with DARPA in this effort.
