The National Science Foundation's Office of Integrative Activities awarded SUNY at Binghamton (through The Research Foundation For The State University of New York) a $805,036 Project Grant effective April 15, 2026, with completion targeted for March 31, 2029, under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083). The award funds the acquisition and deployment of a short-cycle-time Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) system capable of depositing multiple material types including oxides, nitrides, and metals. This infrastructure investment will support advanced research in microelectronics, energy technologies, quantum computing, biomedical devices, and sensors through precise thin-film coating capabilities that provide superior conformal coverage and controlled composition and thickness at the atomic scale. Beyond research advancement, the ALD system will serve as a workforce development platform through formalized coursework, micro-credentials, and hands-on research training for students and industry partners, strengthening regional industry collaborations and national economic competitiveness in semiconductor and advanced materials technologies. The institution will extend educational outreach by partnering with New York State's Master Teacher Program to conduct workshops and laboratory tours for middle and high school educators, thereby building broader STEM capacity and workforce preparation pipelines aligned with the Integrative Activities program's mission to develop critical infrastructure for the nation's science and engineering enterprise.Federal Grant Award Summary
