Inorganic-infiltrated polymer hybrid thin film resists for advanced lithography

Research Foundation for the State University of New York
Business Announcement

Researchers at Stony Brook University (SBU) propose a new invention that provides improved methods for preparing resist materials for advanced lithography, using existing infrastructure and materials without the need for complex chemical synthesis. The synthesized hybrid resists can then undergo lithographic patterning and subsequent pattern transfer. The results support an easy-access, cost‑effective development route to high‑performance lithography resists.

Intermediate nitrification/denitrification bioreactor

Research Foundation for the State University of New York
Business Announcement

Researchers at Stony Brook University (SBU) present a method for nitrification and denitrification of septic effluent comprising an intermediate nitrification/denitrification bioreactor which builds on concepts currently used in the design of full‑scale wastewater treatment plants. However, this design takes an approach in which wood chips are used directly after a sand filter.

Dew point meter based on graphene oxide film

Research Foundation for the State University of New York
Business Announcement

Researchers at Stony Brook University (SBU) have proposed a new method of detecting dew point and icing conditions with hygrometers based on carbon nanomaterials.

Power-efficient multiplexing for high resolution TOF PET modules with intercrystal light sharing

Research Foundation for the State University of New York
Business Announcement

Researchers at Stony Brook University (SBU) have developed a multiplexing scheme for deterministic light sharing PET modules like Prism‑PET, which can have a multiplexed readout that minimally impacts performance.

Highly efficient hydrogen storage and separation of hydrogen from blended methane-hydrogen mixtures in pipelines

Research Foundation for the State University of New York
Business Announcement

Researchers at Stony Brook University have proposed a method of extracting hydrogen from hydrogen‑methane blends that allows for fast and convenient separation and long‑term storage of hydrogen without any loss or degradation.

NY Creates announces participation in 12-inch mask industry initiative to advance high NA EUV lithography ecosystem

NY Creates
Business Announcement

NY Creates (the New York Center for Research, Economic Advancement, Technology, Engineering, and Science) today announced its inclusion in the 12-inch mask industry initiative, a newly formed collaboration designed to strengthen the high numerical aperture extreme ultraviolet (high NA EUV) lithography ecosystem and support the industry’s transition toward larger masks that can be used to increase the area in which chip components at the smallest, next-generation nodes can be printed.

Gibbs Foundation commits $4.5M to establish UofL endowment for lung research

University of Louisville
Grant and Award Announcement

A $4.5 million gift to the University of Louisville establishes the Gibbs Foundation Endowment in the School of Medicine, creating a lasting impact for groundbreaking respiratory disease research. The Gibbs Foundation investment will fuel scientific discovery, advance understanding of lung disease and help drive innovations in patient care. The gift builds on nearly a decade of partnership between the Gibbs Foundation and UofL researchers working to advance ex vivo lung perfusion technology and improve outcomes for patients with acute and chronic respiratory conditions.
