More-than-Moore Devices and Integration for Semiconductors

Francesca Iacopi, MSc Physics (Rome, 1996), PhD EE (KULeuven, 2004) has over 20 years' international industrial and academic expertise in the miniaturisation of semiconductor technologies. She has led large R&D projects for IMEC (Belgium) and Globalfoundries Inc (USA) across electronic devices, interconnects, and packaging. She is known for her influential work in porous dielectrics for interconnects, and, more recently, graphene for on-chip applications. Recipient of an MRS Gold Graduate Student Award (2003), an ARC Future Fellowship (2012), and a Global Innovation Award in Washington DC (2014), she was listed among the most innovative engineers by Engineers Australia (2018). Francesca is a Fellow of the Institution of Engineers Australia and serves in several international technical committees for MRS and IEEE, including the Emerging Research Materials Chapter of the International Roadmap for Systems and Devices (irds.ieee.org). She leads the Integrated Nanosystems Lab at the University of Technology Sydney. She is a Core Member of the Centre for Clean Energy Technology at UTS, an Associate Investigator of the ARC Centre of Excellence in Low-Energy Electronics Technologies (FLEET) and a Chief Investigator of the Centre of Excellence in Transformative Meta-Optical Systems (TMOS). She is also founder and inaugural Chair of the IEEE NSW EDS Chapter.
