New Programs to Drive Industry Search for Next Logic Device by Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) and National Science Foundation (NSF)

July 29, 2008

Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC), in co-operation with the National Science Foundation (NSF), announced on May 28, 2008 the funding of $2M in grants for nanoelctronics research at six NSF Centers.

"These supplemental grants will leverage NSF's significant fundamental research investments in nanoelectronics," said Dr. Lawrence Goldberg, senior engineering advisor at NSF. "Providing support for additional graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to the six centers' programs should demonstrably advance new concepts and, at the same time, help in developing new generations of researchers in this emerging field."

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency that supports fundamental research and education across all fields of science and engineering, with an annual budget of $6.06 billion. NSF funds reach all 50 states through grants to over 1,900 universities and institutions. Each year, NSF receives about 45,000 competitive requests for funding, and makes over 11,500 new funding awards. NSF also awards over $400 million in professional and service contracts yearly.
