The proposal for the “Center for Atomically Precise Fabrication of Solid-State Quantum Devices” has been selected by UT Dallas to receive an award. The center will advance the technology of Hydrogen Depassivation Lithography with particular attention to the atomically precise positioning of dopant atoms in a single atomic Si(100) plane. This is a new and exciting path to realizing analog quantum simulation devices, designer quantum metamaterials and even quantum computing devices and systems.

The interview is published in June 2019 issue of IEEE Control Systems Magazine. You can read the interview here.

Reza Moheimani and James Owen (Zyvex Labs) have won a Department of Energy (DOE) Phase-II Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) award. The project “High Speed Platform for Highly Parallel STM lithography and Hierarchical Assembly.” This project builds on the team’s work in Phase-I to develop and commercialize Microelectromechanical System (MEMS)-based Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) scanners for atomically precise manufacturing.

Reza Moheimani is a Partner Investigator on the ARC Discovery Grant: “Robust Control of Highly Resonant Flexible and Nanoscale Systems” that was recently selected for funding by Australian Research Council. The project is led by Professor Ian Petersen at Australian National University. Professor Alex Lanzon at University of Manchester is another PI. The project’s aim is to develop systematic control synthesis tools for highly resonant systems, and to investigate their applications, particularly in micro and nano-electromechanical sensors.

Reza Moheimani and James Owen (Zyvex Labs) have won a Department of Energy (DOE) Phase-I Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) award. The project “High Speed Platform for Highly Parallel STM lithography and Hierarchical Assembly” aims to develop and commercialize Microelectromechanical System (MEMS)-based Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) scanners.

The project, “A Platform Technology for High-throughput Atomically Precise Manufacturing: Mechatronics at the Atomic Scale”, was selected earlier this year as one of the 24 proposals to be funded under this program by DOE-EERE Advanced Manufacturing Office. The project is led by Moheimani and involves Zyvex Labs (John Randall) and NIST (Jason Gorman) as subcontractors. More details can be found here.
