AKHAN Technologies, Inc., the global leader in diamond semiconductor technology, today announced it would be jointly exhibiting with the Center for Nanoscale Materials at Argonne National Laboratory at the 2013 National User Facility Organization (NUFO) Science Exhibition in Washington D.C. The stated purpose of the event, hosted by the House Science & National Labs Caucus, aims to demonstrate to congressional members and the greater American public the leading research conducted by the national laboratory users that improves upon the nation’s economic competitiveness, scientific research and education, and pushes the boundaries of fundamental knowledge. The format of the event will include demonstration-type exhibits focusing on three major themes: energy, health, and innovative technologies. AKHAN and CNM will be displaying their collaborative efforts on developing energy efficient semiconductor devices based on diamond thin films.
Location: Rayburn House Office Building, 2168 (The Gold Room)
Date: June 26, 2013
Demonstration Title: Energy Efficient Semiconductor Devices Based on Diamond Thin Films
Presenters: Anirudha Sumant & Adam Khan

About Argonne National Laboratory
Argonne National Laboratory seeks solutions to pressing national problems in science and technology. The nation's first national laboratory, Argonne conducts leading-edge basic and applied scientific research in virtually every scientific discipline. Argonne researchers work closely with researchers from hundreds of companies, universities, and federal, state and municipal agencies to help them solve their specific problems, advance America's scientific leadership and prepare the nation for a better future. With employees from more than 60 nations, Argonne is managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science.
About the Center for Nanoscale Materials
The Center for Nanoscale Materials at Argonne National Laboratory is one of the five DOE Nanoscale Science Research Centers (NSRCs), premier national user facilities for interdisciplinary research at the nanoscale, supported by the DOE Office of Science.
Together the NSRCs comprise a suite of complementary facilities that provide researchers with state-of-the-art capabilities to fabricate, process, characterize and model nanoscale materials, and constitute the largest infrastructure investment of the National Nanotechnology Initiative. The NSRCs are located at DOE’s Argonne, Brookhaven, Lawrence Berkeley, Oak Ridge and Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories.
