NEWT; I like it ; )
NEWT is one of three new ERCs announced by the NSF today in Washington. They join 16 existing centers that are still receiving federal support, including Texas’ only other active ERC, the University of Texas at Austin’s NASCENT, as well as the other active center in which Rice is a partner, Princeton University’s MIRTHE. -

NASCENT
Nanosystems ERC for Nanomanufacturing Systems for Mobile Computing and Mobile Energy Technologies
The Nanomanufacturing Systems for Mobile Computing and Mobile Energy Technologies (NASCENT) Center aims to create high-throughput, reliable, and versatile wafer-scale and roll-to-roll nanomanufacturing systems. The transformational technologies of NASCENT include nanosculpting 2D and 3D shapes with unprecedented shape control and positioning, integration of novel nanomaterials such as graphene and nanoparticle inks, in-line optical nanometrology, and low fiscal and environmental processing costs. NASCENT will develop the machines, materials, and models required to produce nanomanufacturing systems that will enable future generation nano-enabled mobile computing and mobile energy devices. Example devices include multi-bit universal Spin Transfer Torque Random Access Memory (STT-RAM) with data densities exceeding a terabit/sq. in.; high-speed FETs on flex substrates that will provide bulk Si CMOS-like transistor performance at flat panel display-like costs; and rollable batteries with high energy density Si nanowire anodes for lithium batteries.

MIRTHE
ERC on Mid-Infrared Technologies for Health and the Environment
MIRTHE is a National Science Foundation Engineering Research Center headquartered at Princeton University, with partners City College New York, Johns Hopkins University, Rice, Texas A&M, and the University of Maryland-Baltimore County. The center encompasses a world-class team of engineers, chemists, physicists, environmental and bio-engineers, and clinicians. MIRTHE's goal is to develop Mid-Infrared (£ - 3-30 µm) optical trace gas sensing systems based on new technologies such as quantum cascade lasers or quartz-enhanced photo-acoustic spectroscopy, with the ability to detect minute amounts of chemicals found in the environment or atmosphere that are emitted from spills, combustion, or natural sources, or exhaled. Through its fundamental research and prototyping in materials, sources, detectors, sensing systems, and applications testbeds, MIRTHE addresses a broad range of technologies and industry sectors--semiconductors, test and measurement, medical equipment manufacturers, chemical and petrochemical, and homeland security--as well as government labs and hospitals. MIRTHE provides interdisciplinary and practice-oriented education for a diverse U.S. workforce and seeks to educate the public about chemical sensing with applications in environment, homeland security, and health.
