The Effect of Lamination on Printed Silver Tracks for Plastic Circuits

Neeli M.R., Thiel D.V., Griffith University, AU

To combat the global e-waste crisis, there is an urgent need to develop a technology where environmental pollution from electronics, their manufacturing and product end of life is minimized through recycling and re-use. Circuits in [...]

Screening Level Cradle to Grave Life Cycle Assessment of a Conceptual Carbon Nanotube Field Emission Display Device

Upadhyayula V.K.K., USEPA/ORISE, US

The case study focuses on performing a screening level Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of a hypothetical 15-inch CNT-FED device. The life cycle inventory (LCI) for the manufacture of the CNT-FED is based on values from [...]

Nano-enabled Green Technologies for Electronics and Energy Applications

Kaul A.B., National Science Foundation, US

Green electronics is largely driven by performance limitations of scaled Si-based CMOS due to the exceptionally high power dissipation arising in such devices at nanoscale dimensions. Novel architectures for computation are currently in consideration, which [...]

Improving the End-of-Life for Electronic Materials via Sustainable Recycling Methods

Korzenski M.B., ATMI, US

The production of electronic equipment such as computers, cell phones, TVs, etc. is one of the fastest growing global manufacturing activities. Unfortunately this results in substantial quantities of waste electric and electronic equipment (WEEE). In [...]

Polymer Matrix Nanocomposites via Forest Derived Nanomaterials

Schueneman G.T., Mintz E.A., Cross L., USDA Forest Service Forest Products Laboratory, US

Trees are a likely source of bioderived nanomaterials for polymer matrix composites (PMCs). All trees and plants utilize a nanoscale fiber as a building block in their reinforcing phase. The presence of nanofiber in cell [...]

Industrial Symbiosis Using Green Chemistry

Clark J., University of York, UK

The twin problems of resource depletion and growing amounts of waste can be solved through the valorization of waste into chemical, fuel and material products. While future “closed-loop” manufacturing should reduce waste through in-house use [...]

Modeling Spray-Coating of Thin Film Solar Cells

Eslamian M., Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, US

Modeling of spray coating process of thin film solar cells is investigated.

Analytical Drain Current Model for Damaged Gate All Around (GAA) MOSFET Including Quantum and Velocity Overshoot Effects

Gautam R., Saxena M., Gupta M., Gupta R.S., Gupta M., Gupta R.S., University of Delhi, South Campus, IN

The Cylindrical Gate All Around (GAA) Nanowire MOSFET exhibits strong drive currents and reduced short channel effects due to enhanced gate control and high surface quality of NW channels [1]. Apart from short channel immunity, [...]

Drift Velocity Calculation in Si Using an Analytical Model for the Phonon Dispersion

Gada M., Vasileska D., Raleva K., Goodnick S.M., Arizona State University, US

It is well known that crystalline silicon is the material of choice for fabrication of integrated circuits because silicon wafers are cheap and silicon dioxide is abundant in nature. Properties of the crystalline silicon have [...]
