Congrats to PhD alums Yoonjin Won (2011) and Jaeho Lee (2012), who are joining the UCI Mechanical and Aerospace Department. They will build programs ranging from nanoscale conduction to advanced convective heat sinks. We wish them both the very best!
The Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) has awarded Prof. Goodson the 2014 Technical Excellence Award for sustained contributions that “significantly enhance the productivity of the semiconductor industry.” The SRC funds hundreds of faculty and students each year, largely through competitive 3-year awards. Ken Goodson and the nanoheat group have been awarded the Technical Excellence Award from […]
Sri, Woosung, Michael, Damena, Yoonjin, Aditya, Scott, Pablo, and Jungwan all presented papers at ITHERM 2014.Michael and Woosung placed first and third in the best poster competition!
…in the Science category for “seminal contributions to phonon and electron transport” and “mentoring the next generation of university thermal science faculty.”
In two new papers, Saniya and our Berkeley collaborators develop a new metric considering materials, processing, and system costs. Energy and Environmental Science Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews
Defects and electron-phonon coupling are frontier challenges for thermal boundary resistance theory. With Jungwan’s new Phys Rev B and papers from Jaeho and Zijian we’ve now provided new models and supporting data on both topics. With AFOSR and DARPA support, Jungwan Cho, Zijian Li, Jaeho Lee, and Elah Bozorg Grayeli have been sorting out the […]
Prof. Goodson was recognized by the American Association for the Advancement of Science for his distinguished contributions to the thermal sciences news article
A collaboration with Wei Cai’s and Tom Kenny’s groups here in Stanford ME, as well as Shigeo Maruyama’s group at Tokyo Institute of Technology, is available now in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. View the paper
With Boeing and Prof. Debbie Senesky (Aero/Astro), we’ll develop SiC micro heat sinks for satellites.We’ll explore phonon scattering & coherence for NSF, continuing the notorious bubbles-phonons rivalry in the NanoHeat lab!
SANIYA LEBLANC (PhD 2012) joins George Washington University, ERIC POP (PhD 2005) started with Stanford Electrical Engineering, and AMY MARCONNET (PhD 2012) started with Purdue Mechanical Engineering. We wish them well! view our alumni
