Title: NIST Recognizes Moffat and Josell for Advancing Electronics and Quantum Technologies
Summary:
NIST has recognized Thomas Moffat and Daniel Josell for their significant contributions to advancing electronics and quantum technologies through their development of advanced processing technologies. These technologies enable the fabrication of nanometer- to millimeter-sized metal features in complex electronics and devices, which is crucial for creating next-generation electronic chips, quantum computer designs, and X-ray imaging systems.
The researchers’ achievements include:
1. Developing sophisticated experimental, theoretical, and modeling research to support their fabrication technologies
2. Successfully transferring their technologies to key industry and government stakeholders through various approaches such as close collaboration, licensing, and CRADAs (Cooperative Research and Development Agreements)
3. Extensive stakeholder outreach to promote the adoption and implementation of their technologies
The recognition of Moffat and Josell’s work highlights the importance of their contributions to advancing critical technologies that will shape the future of electronics, quantum computing, and medical imaging.
