Today, the U.S. National Science Foundation, in partnership with Ericsson, Intel Corporation, Micron Technology and Samsung, announced $42.4 million in grants for its Future of Semiconductors (NSF FuSe2) competition. The investment will fuel groundbreaking research and education across various semiconductor technologies, advancing U.S. leadership in semiconductor research and innovation and addressing key challenges in this critical field, including emerging computing tasks and applications, energy efficiency, performance, manufacturing and supply chains.
The NSF FuSe2 awards will fund semiconductor research to drive technology forward and strengthen the U.S. semiconductor industry and will support the broader goals of the “CHIPS and Science Act of 2022” to ensure long-term leadership in the microelectronics sector and growth in our regional economies across the country. As the demand for advanced computing capabilities grows, particularly in artificial intelligence and machine learning, the need for more efficient, scalable and reliable semiconductor technologies becomes increasingly vital. The awarded projects will explore novel approaches to overcome existing limitations in semiconductor design and fabrication, ensuring that the U.S. remains at the forefront of global technological advancements.
This marks the next stride in the FuSe program. One year ago, almost to the date, NSF launched the initial FuSe program that provided $45.6 million to fund 24 research and education projects supported by funding from the Biden administration’s “CHIPS and Science Act of 2022.”
