Integrated Microelectronics and Photonics Active Cooling Technology (IMPACT)

Abstract

The primary goal of the IMPACT effort is to demonstrate the advantages of heterostructure integrated thermionic (HIT) coolers and their integration with microelectronics and photonics. The majority of our research involves the development of this new technology through nanostructured materials design and growth; device design and fabrication; simulation and modeling; novel measurements of thermoelectric and thermionic behavior; and systems integration and packaging.
