This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.083 - Integrative Activities) provides $209,799 to North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NC A&T) to enhance research capacity and workforce development in semiconductor technologies at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). The project represents a collaborative research initiative led by NC A&T, in partnership with six other HBCUs, to tackle persistent national challenges in semiconductor research, manufacturing, and education. Key focus areas include artificial intelligence in quantum materials, biomimetic waste remediation, wide-bandgap semiconductors, and semiconductor integration and packaging. Through this effort, the project aims to build a comprehensive research network, establish an online platform to share resources, and develop a diverse technical workforce ready to address future semiconductor technology challenges. A sub-award of $215,284 is planned for Coppin State University to set up a simulation lab, lead research on cellulose-based semiconductor waste remediation, and mentor undergraduate students in this area. This collaborative project aligns with the NSF's mission to promote scientific progress and contribute to national prosperity and welfare.
