C-MET’s international online conference on electronic materials marks foundation day

Electronic materials and components are at the core of all electronic devices

Electronic materials and components are at the core of all electronic devices. Materials are the back-bone of capacity and functionality of any electronic gadget. The performance of electronic products is directly dependent on the components used. Substantial financial support in research and development on emerging materials has continuously been provided, although commercialization of the R and D outcome is a challenge. We have now submitted a proposal of Rs150 crore for quantum computing material and are waiting its approval,” said Prof Bharat B Kale, director general, Centre for Materials for Electronics Technology (C-MET) Pune.

C-MET is operating with well a carved-out research mandate in Pune, Hydrebad and Thrissur.

“On this occasion, a three-day online international conference on Multifunctional Electronic Materials and Processing (MEMP 2021) has been organised. It was inaugurated by Prof Rodney Ruoff on Monday and 29 eminent personalities from industry and academia will be delivering the talks. There is also a panel discussion on materials research,” added Kale.

MEMP-2021 will provide an opportunity to scientists, researchers, academicians and young students to interact with eminent scientists and technologists working in the field of multifunctional electronic materials for various applications and their processing for making devices.
