IMG Professor, Dr. Saeed Moghaddam, discusses the future of data center chip cooling in this recent interview with Data Center Knowledge! An ARPA-E COOLERCHIPS Initiative Awardee, he advances cooling solutions for emerging CPUs and GPUs, reinventing how we think about data, energy, and the environment. Read the full interview HERE!
Thank you to all who made it to the 25th Anniversary IMG Symposium for Nano Day 2023! Our keynote and student speakers, poster presenters and industry professionals all made this an excellent event! IMG is glad to show how we are constantly pushing the field of nanotechnology forward.
Congratulations to Sunghyun Hwang (Dr. Yoon’s Group) on his recent journal publication in IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology! This work, “Metal assisted chemical etching toward scallop-free-sidewall through silicon vias: A Review”, discusses current TSV (Through-Silicon Via) fabrication technologies and recent advancements in the MACE (Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching) based fabrication process.
IMG Member Austin Vera will be presenting at AIAA Scitech 2024 in Orlando this upcoming January! He will be discussing his work on Sapphire Pressure Sensors for High-Temperature Applications. Thank you for representing IMG, Austin!
IMG is excited to welcome its newest faculty member, Dr. Adam Khalifa! Dr. Khalifa runs the Neural Interface Technology Laboratory in the ECE department. His research focuses on low-power analog/RF/Mixed-mode ASIC design, miniaturization, wireless powering, electrode design/microfabrication, coil design/fabrication for magnetic stimulation, neural stimulation and recording in animal models, and implant packaging. Welcome to IMG, Dr. Khalifa!
Congratulations to S M Enamul Hoque Yousuf and Minh-Chau Le for being awarded the 2023 IMG Excellence in Research Award! This award is the highest recognition bestowed on an IMG student for his/her research and is a mark of academic distinction for IMG students. Keep up the good work!
Congratulations to Austin Vera, Sai Pranesh Amirisetti, and Brittney Freeman for being awarded the 2023 IMG Excellence in Service Award! This award recognizes students who dedicate himself/herself to promoting the working environment, civic engagement, and/or social harmony within the IMG community. Thank you for your contributions!
Earlier this week, IMG hosted our annual Kick-Off meeting with a “State of IMG” address, pizza, and awards. We wish everyone a very successful academic year ahead! Go Gators!
