Students will participate in a cleanroom simulation in order to learn about microchip contaminants that can impact the semiconductor manufacturing process, and the personal protective equipment (PPE - or “bunny suits”) that prevent contamination.
Students will learn how solar cells are manufactured and how they capture energy, as well as how to angle a solar panel to capture the most amount of energy possible.
Students will learn how computer chips get transformed from a brick of processed material into the items we associate with electronic devices, by addressing Photolithography, or the method of stenciling complex designs into silicon wafer.
By engaging in a real engineering design challenge, students will be able to experience a high-stakes competition to solve their challenge through troubleshooting.
Students will learn about the manufacturing methods used to transform raw Silicon into positively- and negatively-charged components, along with the function of diodes and transistors in a computing system.
Students will explore the properties of metalloids and explain why silicon is the most commonly used element in semiconductors.
Students will create copper sulfate crystals, then develop a model at the molecular level to apply their observations to other substances. In doing so, students will learn about how semiconductors are produced, and be exposed to other industrial and commercial uses for these materials.
uring my fellowship at UCSF I plan to observe the clinical informatics side of the health care system, what happens in the background, learn about the various careers involved and how much impact these careers can have.
Facebook Reliability Labs are commissioned to ensure that their products are of good quality and perform experiments to ensure materials will last for their design lifetime.
