Nanomanufacturing ppt
Nanomanufacturing involves producing materials and parts on the nanoscale using either top-down or bottom-up approaches. The top-down approach starts with large pieces of material and makes them smaller through techniques like lithography, while the bottom-up approach builds up structures atom by atom through self-assembly and deposition. Nanomanufacturing allows precise control at the atomic scale, which gives materials unique properties. Current applications include electronics, sensors, and information storage, while potential future applications could expand to fields like aviation, nanobots, and pharmaceuticals.

The document describes research optimizing the deposition of aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films using RF magnetron sputtering. Varying the argon pressure, RF power, and target-to-substrate distance, the best conditions were found to be 0.21 Pa pressure, 120 W power, and 5.2 inch distance. Films deposited at lower pressures had higher crystallinity and were oriented in the c-axis, with bandgaps around 3.4 eV. Higher pressures increased resistivity and decreased bandgap due to the Burstein-Moss effect.

The basic steps of IC fabrication involve wafer production, epitaxial growth, etching, masking, doping, atomic diffusion, ion implantation, and metallization. These steps include growing high purity silicon crystals, slicing wafers, depositing and patterning layers, and adding impurities to alter conductivity. Lithography is used with photoresists and masks to pattern layers by selectively exposing and removing material. Oxidation forms insulating silicon dioxide layers through controlled heating processes. Etching then transfers the mask patterns by removing exposed material using wet chemical baths or plasma reactions.

Reid's Poster
The document discusses research into finding a malleable material that can be used to mass produce optical devices for inertial confinement fusion through imprinting or molding. The material must have high UV transparency at 351.1 nm and a laser damage threshold greater than 2 Joules/cm2. Two materials, Resin Design and Master Bond, met the transparency requirement but only Resin Design had a high enough damage threshold. Future work will focus on developing imprinting methods and determining if the materials can be released from molds like Teflon without a releasing agent.

Laser machining presentation based on liming he et al paper
This document analyzes the optimization of wavelengths for machining metals using harmonic generations of a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser. It calculates the absorption efficiency of various metals at different harmonic wavelengths by determining the absorptivity of each metal and the conversion efficiency of the nonlinear optical crystals used to generate the harmonics. The results show that for metals like gold, silver, and copper, the optimum machining wavelengths are the third, fourth, and second harmonics respectively, while for metals like nickel and platinum it is the fundamental Nd:YAG wavelength. Experimental validation on gold substrates confirms the calculated optimum wavelengths.

Micro_Electro_mechanical_system
Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, or MEMS, is a technology that in its most general form can be defined as miniaturized mechanical and electro-mechanical elements (i.e., devices and structures) that are made using the techniques of microfabrication. The critical physical dimensions of MEMS devices can vary from well below one micron on the lower end of the dimensional spectrum, all the way to several millimeters. Likewise, the types of MEMS devices can vary from relatively simple structures having no moving elements, to extremely complex electromechanical systems with multiple moving elements under the control of integrated microelectronics. The one main criterion of MEMS is that there are at least some elements having some sort of mechanical functionality whether or not these elements can move. The term used to define MEMS varies in different parts of the world. In the United States they are predominantly called MEMS, while in some other parts of the world they are called “Microsystems Technology” or “micromachined devices”.

Mems manufacturing
Micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) combine mechanical and electrical components on a silicon chip using microfabrication techniques. MEMS can sense, control, and actuate on a microscale and generate macroscale effects. Common MEMS fabrication techniques include deposition, patterning, etching, and micromachining of materials like silicon and metals. There are three main micromachining methods: bulk micromachining which removes silicon substrate material, surface micromachining which builds up thin films, and high-aspect-ratio micromachining (HARM) which allows molding of high-resolution microstructures. LIGA is a specialized HARM technique that uses x-rays to pattern thick photoresist
Mems introduction
MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) are microscopic devices and integrated systems that combine electrical and mechanical components between 1-100 micrometers in size. They integrate sensors, actuators and electronics on a common silicon substrate through microfabrication technology. MEMS originated in the 1980s and are now used in automotive, biomedical, industrial and consumer applications. Some key advantages of MEMS include lower manufacturing costs, reduced size, and lower power consumption compared to macro-scale devices. Challenges include developing robust packaging and manufacturing processes for commercialization.
Micro-Electromechanical Systems (Mems)
Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) have been identified as one of the most promising technologies and will continue to revolutionize the industry as well as the industrial and consumer products by combining silicon-based microelectronics with micro-machining technology. All the spheres of industrial application including robots conception and development will be impacted by this new technology. If semiconductor microfabrication was contemplated to be the first micro-manufacturing revolution, MEMS is the second revolution. The paper reflects the results of a study about the state of the art of this technology and its future influence in the development of the construction industry. The interdisciplinary nature of MEMS utilizes design, engineering and manufacturing expertise from a wide and diverse range of technical areas including integrated circuit fabrication technology, mechanical engineering, materials science, electrical engineering, chemistry and chemical engineering, as well as fluid engineering, optics, instrumentation and packaging.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
