Dennis S. Kim, PhD, alongside co-PI Travis Anderson, PhD, from UF Chemical Engineering, have received a DARPA CRYSTAL grant to replace costly trial-and-error methods in wafer bonding with predictive modeling. The project tackles a critical manufacturing challenge: even advanced platforms like lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) lack reliable models to predict optimal bonding conditions, limiting the scalable production of next-generation photonic, sensing, and electronic devices.| ECE Florida News

Laura Kim, Ph.D., has been awarded a DARPA Young Faculty Award in support of her project “Room-Temperature Strong Coupling in Intercalated 2D Plasmonic Systems.” The $500,000, two-year project seeks to unlock quantum phenomena that have traditionally remained exclusive to cryogenic temperatures, bringing them into room-temperature environments by using layered nanoscale materials that confine light with extreme precision.| ECE Florida News
States in a quantum computer must stay coherent long enough to finish processing quantum algorithms. Most paradigms to realize a practical universal quantum computer require quantum error correction to increase the lifetime of logical states. Quantum error correction employs logical qubits encoded in larger Hilbert spaces to mitigate the effects of noise at the physical level. Most demonstrations of quantum error correction encode logical qubits in blocks of physical qubits, with logical erro...| ECE Florida News
