Professor Cary Yang
|
Professor Cary Yang has played a pivotal role in the creation of the NCBV program. He is currently a professor in the School of Engineering at Santa Clara University as well as a consulting professor with the NCSV program.
He is as much a scientist as he is an engineer. In recent years, his research, which aimed at increasing the performance and reliability of silicon-based devices and circuits, delves into the very basics of chemistry and physics. Yang's expertise and research interests continue to revolve around interfaces between materials. "My work takes place where performance and reliability meet," he says.
He and his students study how improving existing or designing new material interfaces can enhance the performance and reliability of devices and circuits. His research has benefited a number of important applications including flash memories and high-performance logic circuits. Yang's findings also could enhance performance and reliability of circuits used in telecommunication systems.
