We focus on manufacturing science and technology and policy of interest to semiconductor and related manufacturing industries.AVS70’s theme of Sustainability is top of mind for the semiconductor industry our topic would build on our Energy Efficiency Scaling for 2 Decades (EES2) talks from AVS69 and also include talks addressing PFAS reduction, EPA’s AIM Act-HFC reduction, replacement of high GWP refrigerants and addressing e-waste through reuse and recycling. Second is our Workforce Panel where we’d feature mainly manufacturers, but also representatives who have worked on EWD Chapters of recent roadmaps and a perspective from customers of AVS short course. Third is a joint effort with TFD highlighting where thin film techniques can now enable the design and fabrication of highly complex electronic devices. In response to concerns about the standards battery community not being part of AVS, this topic would highlight the profound contrast between thin film microfabrication and thick film processing (as used in conventional batteries). Recent extensions of microfabrication employ mobile ions as well as electrons to realize iontronic devices for thin film batteries, capacitors, sensors, electrochromics, and analog memory for neuromorphic computing. Thin film microfabrication of iontronic devices ensures flexible, controlled configurations designed for high performance.
