revolutionary research in electronics, photonics, MEMS, algorithms, and combined Microsystems technology

[Charles Maris]

Greetings, Engineers,

It must be Federal Friday.

I came across a DARPA call for "revolutionary research in electronics,
photonics, MEMS, algorithms, and combined Microsystems technology"

Furthermore, "The Microsystems Technology Office’s (MTO) mission is to
exploit breakthroughs in
materials, devices, circuits, and mathematics to develop beyond
leading edge
Microsystems components with revolutionary performance and
functionality to enable
new platform capability for the Department of Defense. To execute this
mission, MTO
supports revolutionary research in electronics, photonics, MEMS,
algorithms, and
combined Microsystems technology to deliver new capabilities to sense,
communicate,
energize, actuate, and process data and information"

Research areas of current interest in MTO include, but are not limited
to, the following
topics:

 Heterogeneous Integration
 Emerging MEMs Technologies
 Non-Silicon Electronics
 Novel Photonic Devices
 Quantum Devices
 Hardware Assurance, Reliability & Validation
 Low Volume Microsystems Manufacturing
 Signal Processing Hardware
 Low Power Electronics
 Power Generation, Storage & Conversion
 Thermal Management
 Microsystems Complexity & Nonlinearity
 Advanced Imaging Architectures
 Photonic & Electronic Interconnects
 Microsystem Design & CAD
 Bio-Medical Microsystems
 Chip Scale Sensors
 Microsystems for Directed Energy
 Microsystems for Precision Navigation & Timing
 Microsystems for RF/Optical Transceivers
 Other Microsystems Technology Topic Areas
