CMC Microsystems Announces Winner of 2021 Douglas R. Colton Medal for Research Excellence

CMC Microsystems is proud to announce that Dr. Taleana Huff of the University of Alberta has been awarded the 2021 Douglas R. Colton Medal for Research Excellence.

For her Master’s degree and her PhD, Huff focused on “Atomic White-Out,” an error correction method for fabricating and patterning quantum dots. The technique gave Huff and the team the ability to successfully build atomic circuits, construct binary atomic wires and logic gates.

This circuitry, built atom by atom could provide a new basis for electronic devices that are far more energy efficient, faster, and smaller than what is available today.
