Technical Committee
Nano Packaging

Mission

CPMT views nano-packaging and nano-systems integration to be its strategic mission. However, while there has been lot of nano focus from scientists in nanosciences leading to nano-devices, there has been very little nano-engineering into products.

The mission of this Technical Committee, therefore, is to promote nano-packaging and nano-systems engineering and integration, globally leading to nano-components and nano-systems.

What is Nano?

• A nanometer is 1 billionth of a meter; the width of 10 hydrogen atoms.
• Engineers accept up to 100 nanometers as being “nanoscale.”

Why Nano?

• Beyond silicon for electronics
• Potential to unravel secrets of bio cell
• Superior electrical, mechanical, chemical, optical properties

Nano Appplications

• Electronics and IT
• Heath care
• Environment protection
• Energy
• Anti-terrorism and homeland defense

General Scope

The Nano Packaging Technical Committee aims to be involved in both nano-research and nano-education. Research dissemination is accomplished by means of global workshops and conferences. The education will be accomplished by means of publications, short courses, academic courses and books.
