The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office (NNCO) has announced an upcoming webinar that continues the series associated with the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI). This series delves into the intricacies of nanometrology and addresses the associated metrological challenges and advancements, especially as they pertain to various industries. The scheduled webinar, titled “Nanometrology for Continuous and Automated Manufacturing,” is anticipated to take place on 1st November 2024.
This particular session aims to tackle measurement and analysis challenges within the field of nanotechnology, focusing on issues exacerbated by computational limitations and the handling of extensive data sets. Key topics are set to include:
Four-Dimensional (4D)-Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM): This segment will shed light on the implications of big data when using 4D-STEM and explore potential solutions to manage these challenges effectively.
The Development of a Spatiotemporally-Resolved Digital Twin Tool: This topic will cover the advancement of digital twin technology, emphasizing its ability to enhance precision and effectiveness in nanotechnological applications by simulating detailed, time-specific data.
Joint Automated Repository for Various Integrated Simulations (JARVIS) Database: Discussions will enhance understanding of the JARVIS database's role, which encompasses a suite of tools designed to optimise integrated simulations within nanotechnology research and development.
The event will feature distinguished speakers from notable institutions, including Colin Ophus from Stanford University, Subramanian Sankaranarayanan from the Center for Nanoscale Materials at Argonne National Laboratory, and Kamal Choudhary from the National Institute of Standards and Technology. These experts bring a wealth of knowledge and will provide insights into how current challenges are being addressed and overcome in nanometrology.
The series of webinars hosted by the NNI this year have been diligently recorded and are accessible on the NNI's website for those interested in catching up on previous discussions. By facilitating these webinars, the NNCO continues to support advances in nanotechnology, promoting shared knowledge and addressing critical technological hurdles. This initiative provides a platform for leading experts to engage with the community, helping to shape the future landscape of nanometrology and its applications across various sectors including food, agriculture, environmental sciences, and the field of electronics.
