This lab’s research is a little extreme

ASU faculty researchers and students are testing the performance and resilience of today’s semiconductor technologies under some of the most challenging conditions. The university’s Extreme Environments Science and Technology Center serves the Southwest Advanced Prototyping, or SWAP, Hub, part of the U.S. Department of Defense’s Microelectronics Commons, which is helping government and industry partners design technologies that are reliable in demanding circumstances. Hugh Barnaby, a professor in the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering, part of the Fulton Schools, leads the SWAP Hub’s extreme environment reliability efforts, one of the facilities providing Fulton Schools students such as  Jerome Neuendank and Tyler Kirby hands-on experience and skills that will enhance their career opportunities.
