The University of Warwick Department of Physics has been awarded a five-year £1.7 million grant for “Creating Silicon Based Platforms for New Technologies.” The initiative will bring in new technologies ranging from energy harvesting to “cooltronics,” enabling zero-power electronics and could be key to combating global climate change.
The £1.7 million Platform Grant from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) will assist the University of Warwick’s internationally recognized Nano-Silicon Group and enable them to further their exciting new developments in silicon-based technologies.
