SUMMARY:Nano Electronics in 'Beyond Moore’s Law' era
DESCRIPTION:Conférencier :Meyya Meyyappan\, NASA Ames Research Center
\nAb
 stract: We have been fabricating nanoscale vacuum tubes over the last thre
 e years using entirely and exclusively silicon technology. Vacuum is super
 ior to any semiconductor in terms of electron transport\, in addition to b
 eing immune to all radiations. We have combined the best of vacuum transpo
 rt and silicon technology to fabricate surround gate nanoscale vacuum tran
 sistors on 8 ' wafers with a channel dimension of 50 nm. These vacuum tran
 sistors\, operating at a drive voltage of only 2 V\, which is remarkable f
 or vacuum devices\, have the potential for THz electronics and several oth
 er applications.
\nThis talk will also provide an overview of our recent a
 ctivities in printable electronics including gas sensors\, antennas and tr
 iboelectric nanogenerators. To enable a one-step printing without the need
  for post-deposition thermal treatment\, we have developed an atmospheric 
 pressure plasma jet printing technology. This is an alternative to inkjet 
 printing for depositing conducting\, semiconducting\, insulating and other
  materials on a variety of flexible substrates. The author thanks Jin-Woo

\nBio: Meyya Meyyappan is Chief Scientist for Exploration Tech
 nology at NASA Ames Research Center in Moffett Field\, CA. Until June 2006
 \, he served as the Director of the Center for Nanotechnology. He is a fou
 nding member of the Interagency Working Group on Nanotechnology (IWGN) est
 ablished by the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP). The IWGN i
 s responsible for putting together the National Nanotechnology Initiative.
  Dr. Meyyappan has authored or co-authored over 360 articles in peer-revie
 wed journals and made over 250 Invited/Keynote/Plenary Talks in nanotechno
 logy subjects across the world and over 200 seminars at universities. His 
 research interests include carbon nanotubes\, graphene\, and various inorg
 anic nanowires\, their growth and characterization\, and application devel
 opment in chemical and biosensors\, instrumentation\, electronics and opto
 electronics. Dr. Meyyappan is a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and 
 Electronics Engineers (IEEE)\, Electrochemical Society (ECS)\, American Va
 cuum Society (AVS)\, Materials Research Society (MRS)\, Institute of Physi
 cs (IOP)\, American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE)\, American Ins
 titute of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)\, National Academy of Inventors\, an
 d the California Council of Science and Technology. He is currently the IE
 EE Electron Devices Society (EDS) Distinguished Lecturer\, and was the Dis
 tinguished Lecturer on Nanotechnology for both the IEEE Nanotechnology Cou
 ncil and ASME. For his contributions and leadership in nanotechnology\, he
  has received numerous awards including: a Presidential Meritorious Award\
 ; NASA's Outstanding Leadership Medal\; Arthur Flemming Award given by the
  Arthur Flemming Foundation and the George Washington University\; IEEE Ju
 dith Resnick Award\; IEEE-USA Harry Diamond Award\; AIChE Nanoscale Scienc

 nto the Silicon Valley Engineering Council Hall of Fame in 2009. He receiv
 ed an Honorary Doctorate in 2015 from the University of Witwatersrand\, Jo
 hannesburg\, South Africa for his scientific contributions. For his educat
 ional contributions\, he has received: Outstanding Recognition Award from 
 the NASA Office of Education\; the Engineer of the Year Award (2004) by th
 e San Francisco Section of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astro
 nautics (AIAA)\; IEEE-EDS Education Award\; IEEE-EAB (Educational Activiti
