A team of physicists and engineers has discovered a new way to eavesdrop on some of the most elusive and subtle magnetic phenomena in nature — using membranes so thin and sensitive they can hear what no traditional probes could see or sense.

A team of ten UF researchers, led by Dr. Yong-Kyu Yoon, is supporting 1 of only 10 NSF Engines: “Central Florida Semiconductor Innovation Engine.”

A diverse team led by three ECE Florida faculty members is set to receive funding from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to design and fabricate dynamic pressure sensors capable of performing at temperatures upwards of 800 °C (1472 °F), over a factor of 6X higher than any integrated pressure sensor currently in use.

The US Department of Defense (DoD) recently announced the 2024 funded DURIP projects under the DURIP. ECE Florida faculty submitted a number of proposals and four were ultimately chosen for funding.

Dr. Philip Feng, ECE professor and associate chair for research, has been named as the inaugural Walden C. Rhines Endowed Professor for Quantum Engineering. The endowment will support Dr. Feng’s research program, focused on quantum engineering, novel materials, and nanoelectricalmechanical devices (NEMS), as well as the creation of the Florida Quantum Initiative. 

Faculty members from the ECE Department are collaborating with researchers from the Engineering Education Department (EED) and the College of Education (CoE) on a new NSF project, Innovating Quantum-Inspired Learning for Undergraduates in Research and Engineering.

A publication co-authored by Dr. Roozbeh Tabrizian, Dr. Philip Feng, Troy Tharpe, and Dr. Xu-Qian Zheng currently graces the cover of Advanced Engineering Materials.

The cover of Applied Physics Letters‘ first issue of 2022 features the work of ECE Professor Philip Feng and his research group.
