[] CYBERSECURITY AWARENESS MONTH Cybersecurity Starts with You: Protect, Prevent, Prevail Since 2004, the President of the United States and Congress have declared October to be Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Cyber-attacks on corporations, governmental agencies and individuals are becoming increasingly widespread and regular, as well as more complex. The Virtual Sixth Annual Los Angeles IEEE Coastal […]

Achieving efficient p-type doping in gallium nitride (GaN) and its alloys remains one of the most critical challenges in realizing the full potential of III-nitride semiconductors for high-power electronics, deep-ultraviolet (DUV) optoelectronics, and quantum information technologies. While magnesium is the conventional acceptor dopant, its high ionization energy (≈0.22 eV in GaN and up to 0.6 […]

The power industry is under pressure to rapidly expand infrastructure to meet growing demands from both consumers and producers. But sticking to traditional design and construction methods may no longer be enough. One of the biggest bottlenecks? Hardware dependencies—like waiting on control wiring or specific components—that delay commissioning and inflate project timelines. This presentation explores […]

[]Trends in consumer goods are leaning towards thinner, more compact products with higher performance than their predecessors. Today’s consumer wants lightweight, portable, battery-operated gear that is powerful enough to satisfy their needs for speed and ease of use. One of the biggest challenges facing product design is thermal management. Case temperature limits for products that […]

[]The rapid rise in power density and complexity of electronic systems has made thermal management a critical challenge for ensuring reliability, performance, and sustainability. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers transformative opportunities to address this challenge by enabling data-driven modeling, optimization, and predictive control of cooling systems. By integrating AI with experimental and physics-based approaches, adaptive models […]
