Nordson and The Microelectronics Foundation are sponsoring a Student Paper Competition in conjunction with the The Advanced Technology Workshop (ATW) on Photovoltaics, Fuel Cells and other Emerging Technologies in the Development of Alternative Energy. Abstracts are being accepted from universities involved in research and development in the areas of photovoltaics/solar, fuel cells and alternative energy, consistent with the technical focus of this workshop. The review committee will evaluate all student papers and award one author with a $1,000 check and the opportunity to present his or her paper.
This workshop will focus on the core issues involving both new technologies, and materials/processes for renewable, non-renewable, and innovative application of existing technologies. Incentives for research, investment, and adoption are already practiced in some Asian and European countries. Following new energy policies in the US and other countries, these incentives are now available to encourage the adoption, research, and development of new technologies.
Abstracts are being requested in the following areas:
Solar - Photovoltaics
Fuel Cells
Geothermal
BioFuels
Batteries and Hybrids
Wind
Other Approaches Thermal and Power Management
Inverter Materials and Design Grid and Storage
Approaches Design for Efficiency Materials & Reliability
Qualification Approaches
Environmental Regulations
Government/State Policies and Incentives
