The National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) awarded a five-year CAREER grant totaling $500,000 to Columbia University, effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2031. This project grant supports fundamental research and development of a degradation-aware design framework for gallium nitride (GaN) mixed-signal circuits capable of operating above 500°C under combined high-temperature and radiation stress. The primary deliverable is the establishment of a scientific foundation and design methodology enabling reliable GaN-based analog and mixed-signal circuits for extended operation in extreme environments, with applications in planetary exploration, advanced energy systems, and distributed sensing in harsh conditions. In addition to the core research deliverables, the project integrates workforce development through the creation of a new graduate course on harsh-environment electronics, mentoring of undergraduate and high school researchers, and expanded outreach programs focused on semiconductor reliability and extreme-environment engineering. These educational and outreach components advance both national competitiveness in semiconductor technology and provide equitable access to engineering education, consistent with NSF Engineering program objectives of fostering innovation while developing a diverse and skilled engineering workforce.Federal Grant Award Summary
