About S³IP & NYSTAR
S³IP brings together the resources of several organized research initiatives including: the Integrated Electronics Engineering Center (IEEC), a New York State Center of Advanced Technology, known for leading edge research in electronics packaging; the National Science Foundation Industry/University Cooperative Research Center in Energy-Smart Electronic Systems (ES2), developing new dynamic, predictive, and synergistic energy optimization and thermal management design criteria enabling U.S. data centers and electronic systems to operate efficiently and securely; the Center for Autonomous Solar Power (CASP), focused on new energy production and storage technologies; the Center for Advanced Microelectronics Manufacturing (CAMM), a national microelectronics R&D center demonstrating the feasibility of roll-to-roll flexible electronics manufacturing; and the Northeast Center for Chemical Energy Storage (NECCES) , an effort being led by Binghamton University to support basic research in the design of the next generation of lithium-ion batteries (LiBs), which requires both the development of new chemistries and the fundamental understanding of the physical and chemical processes that occur in these complex systems. Underpinning these research initiatives is the Analytical and Diagnostics Laboratory (ADL). NYSTAR’s responsibilities include the administration and oversight of the seven Centers of Excellence (COE) across New York State, including S³IP. The Centers of Excellence Program supports major upgrades of research facilities and other high technology and biotechnology capital projects, allowing colleges, universities and research institutions to secure research funding that will lead to new job creation. NYSTAR defines the mission of S³IP at Binghamton University as “advancing the frontiers of microelectronics research and development, specifically addressing challenges in small scale systems design, development, prototyping, process development and manufacturing for the microelectronics industry.”
