NITL was active at the IEEE ITherm in Denver, CO! Dr. Pavlidis served as a Tech-Talk Co-Chair and organized the conference’s first ever session on Quantum Computing and Thermal Packaging. Furthermore, Francis Vasquez’s first conference paper was also presented on optimizing microheaters for Phase Change Memory applications. Since there was no more snow in CT in late May, a quick trip to the Rocky Mountains provided panoramic views of the Rockies.
NITL finished the 23/24 Academic Year strong! Bivek successfully defended his Master’s Thesis titled “Thermal Analysis of SrSnO3 Perovskite Based Ultra-Wide Bandgap Semiconductor Devices”. Dominic was awarded the 2024 National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship (NDSEG)! Additionally, Dr. Pavlidis was awarded to 2024 ONR Summer Faculty Research Program to conduct research with the Naval Research Laboratory on Thermal Management Solutions for Ultra Wide Bandgap Semiconductors!
