Photothermal Spectroscopy Corporation proposes to develop, validate, and commercialize Gigahertz Optical Photothermal Infrared, a new instrument for the semiconductor industry for high-speed thermal properties analysis and simultaneous chemical characterization of with sub-micron spatial resolution.
Utilizing the new instrument, the awardee will create a platform for simultaneous chemical analysis and thermal property measurement; measure thermal transients in semiconductor materials and then validate thermophysical models in collaboration with NIST.
The instrument should improve thermal properties analysis and chemical characterization.
The U.S. semiconductor manufacturing community through improved thermal management and thermal property characterization resulting from their instrument.
The recipient plans to subaward funds to aid in the validation of their instrument developed under this project.
