In February 2025, NIST researcher Dr. M. Sharp published the second installment of a 4-part Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) manufacturing innovation
Impact and Customers Materials with new or improved properties are continually being developed to meet demands for increased functionality of components and devices at decreased costs. Examples of multi-million dollar industries driven by materials advances are solid-state lighting (GaN-based
The STG develops the methods and metrology that will lead to the understanding of the structure-property relationships of hierarchical composites in real medical PPE or protective applications, which heretofore has been lacking. This work establishes in situ monitoring of advanced manufacturing
IAIMM has identified IAI systems for decision making, planning, and control in manufacturing as a prime candidate for better Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) centered on both use and evaluation. The specific use case of multi-stage manufacturing presents a broad scope of application to
Inkjet Droplet Metrology: Drop-on-Demand (DOD) inkjet printing allows precise deposition of picoliter (pL)-size droplets of solutions containing organic or inorganic materials. These drops can be used to create unique patterns, structures, and coatings and build 3-D microstructures making it a
In semiconductor device manufacturing, 3D structure measurements of newly complex devices would be valuable alongside conventional scanning electron microscopy
