 WHY to STUDY at the AUTONOMA de MADRID? LOOK HERE

The focus of the school is on the most advanced technologies in the fields of semiconductors, very deep submicron and 3D technologies, nanotechnology, advanced packaging and interconnects, telecommunications, real-time signal processing, filtering and massively parallel computing and on the physics motivations that require confronting these technogical challenges for building the needed new instruments. 

These physics motivations are reviewed both in dedicated lectures as well as in all the more technology-based lectures.

The school provides lectures and lab work in a variety of cross-disciplinary example applications drawn from the exploration of distant universe, through medical imaging of the human body, to exploration of the elementary particle world and fall backs on the daily-life (this year: on new energies). Lectures on technical developments and science overviews will be given by experts from academia and industry, alongside with hands-on lab sessions with demonstrators and subject specific master-classes on science & technology.

The UAM INFIERI School flyer is available here below: UAM-INFIERI-Flyer2021.pdf

60 MUON COLLIDERs

This lecture will conclude the different R&D projects for new HEP machines.

Muon colliders can offer collisions of point-like particles at very high energies, since muons can be accelerated in a ring without limitation from synchrotron radiation.
However, the need for high luminosity faces technical challenges which arise from the short muon lifetime at rest and the difficulty of producing large numbers of muons in bunches with small emittance. Addressing these challenges requires the development of innovative concepts and demanding
technologies.

64 NANOTECHNOLOGY APPLIED TO NEW VACCINES: the COVID-19 case and the perspectives of application to major diseases still without vaccine coverage

The primary focus of PD Dr Steve Pascolo's research activities since the beginning of his scientific career has been the use of molecular biology as a tool for improving health.
Ecole Normale Superieure: PhD in Biochemistry
After developing an immunologically “humanized” mouse model in 1998 at Institut Pasteur in Paris, he used the model to compare vaccine formats, i.e., proteins, peptides and nucleic acids (plasmid DNA and messenger RNA), during his post-doctoral fellowship in Tuebingen, Germany.
As messenger RNA is an innovative, safe and promising vaccine format, he led a team at Tuebingen University which further optimized its efficacy and implemented its clinical evaluation from 1999 to 2006.
This was made possible through collaboration between research and clinical teams at the University Hospital of Tuebingen and a dedicated company that he co-founded, CureVac.
Numerous pre-clinical and clinical studies (from Phase I to pivotal) evaluating different formulations of mRNA vaccines across several therapeutic (e.g., anti-cancer vaccines) and prophylactic (e.g., anti-pathogen vaccines) setups are ongoing.
They foresee that mRNA-based formulations will soon be approved as therapeutic drugs and that many new formulations of mRNA will be used to address a wide range of health issues (e.g., cancer, infectious diseases, allergies, genetic diseases, regenerative medicine). Aiming to combine immunotherapies and chemotherapies for the treatment of cancer, Dr Pascolo joined the University Hospital of Zurich in 2006.
His current activities include the implementation of clinical studies (chemotherapy combinations) and, through the URPP, the pre-clinical optimization and clinical implementation of mRNA-based anti-cancer therapies. This later project comprises primarily (i) active immunotherapies using immunostimulating mRNA-based formulations that can boost natural anti-cancer immunities and (ii) passive anti-cancer immunotherapies using mRNA-coding immune receptors that can endow any relevant lymphocyte with anti-cancer capabilities.

Dr Pascolo is co-founder and CSO of CureVac AG (2000-2006); Founder and CEO of Miescher Pharma GmbH (since 2008); Founder and CEO spRNA (since 2013);
PD Dr Senior Scientist at University Hospital of Zurich at the Oncology Department (2006-2013): at the Dermatology Department (since 2013) and Messenger RNA platform (since 2016).

The plenary session will resume then at 10h 30 with the session dedicated to Big data, Massive parallel and high performance computing.

Convener: Prof. Jose Manuel PEREZ (Director of the Tehnology Deaprtment of CIEMAT)

69 KEYNOTE on NEW ENERGIES: Part 1: THE NEXT GENERATION OF SOLAR ENERGY: THE PEROVSKYTE SOLAR CELLS

Nam-Gyu Park is distinguished professor at Sungkyunkwan University in South Korea. Considered as one of the precursors of solar cells based on hybrid perovskites, it has especially led to improve the efficiency of the first cells from 3.8% for the first (carried out by T. Miyasaka) to 6.5% in 2011 and 9% in 2012.

In 1995, NG Park obtained his PhD in “Inorganic Solid State Chemistry” at Seoul National University. His adventure in renewable energies really began in 1996 when he decided to pursue his post-doctoral studies in France at ICMCB-CNRS until 1997. He then moved to the USA and began his research on high-efficiency mesoscopic solar cells, including perovskite solar cells and dye-sensitized solar cells, while working at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory as a post-doctoral researcher. After 5 years abroad, NG Park returned to Korea and joined the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute as a principal scientist until 2005. He then became Director of Solar Cell Research Center at Korea Institute of Science and Technology before joining Sungkyunkwan University in 2009.

During these years, NG Park received many awards including the Scientific Award of the Month (MEST, Korea), the KyungHyang Electricity and Energy Award (KEPCO, Korea), the KIST Award of the Year (KIST, Korea), the Dupont Science and Technology Award (Dupont, Korea) and the SKKU fellowship. He has written more than 150 scientifc papers, filed more than 35 patent applications and written 3 book chapters. In 2011, his paper announcing a 6.5% efficiency for perovskite cells was mentioned 2360 times. But it was in 2012 that NG Park triggered the incredible rise of halogenated hybrid perovskites in the NREL diagram with its article, taken up nearly 5,000 times, announcing a 9% yield, only one year after the 6.5% record.

71 CREATING A SUN in THE LAB: THE ITER WORLDWIDE ENTERPRISE

Formerly Director of the Joint European Torus (JET) AT CULHAM UK, and Director of the French CEA's magnetic fusion research department (DRFC, today IRFM), Jean Jacquinot has been closely associated with ITER for the past quarter century. He is presently a scientific advisor to the French High Commissioner for Atomic Energy and Senior Advisor to the ITER Director-General.

As introduction, here below the abstract of the article:
ITER: The Stakes of a Major International Collaboration
by Jean Jacquinot, Gabriel Marbach
In Revue internationale et stratégique Volume 55, Issue 3, 2004, pages 93 to 97

"For the last few months, officials from six important countries or groups of countries – China, North Korea, the United States, Russia, Japan and the European Union (EU) – have been working together in order to launch a global research initiative of magnetic fusion on occasion of the ITER project (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor). This collaboration brings about competition, for instance on the question of the ITER’s settlement which is played out between the EU, who proposed Cadarache in the South-East of France, and Japan who put forward Rokkasho-Mura. However, signifying a global rising of awareness of an energy problem which is of concern to all mankind, the ITER project is thus strategic for the future, as it opens the perspective of placing an abundant source of energy, respectful of the environment, at humanity’s disposal."

72 CONCEPTS IN WAVE ENERGY CONVERSION: THE SEA TITAN EU-Funded PROJECT

Wave energy conversion is a promising alternative to produce clean energy from the huge available resource at sea, but it is also a challenging mission because extraction conditions are difficult due to the harsh environment and also to the low frequency of the energy conversion process. In the Ocean Energy Strategic Roadmap was estimated that 100GW of ocean energy capacity could be deployed in Europe by 2050, producing around 350TWh of electricity meeting up to 10 % of Europe’s demand by 2050. For this target to be attained it is essential the development of wave energy converters and specifically of its Power Take-Off (PTO), as one of the key technological priorities to increase the reliability and performance of ocean energy devices.During the session, the main concepts underlying the conversion of wave energy into electricity will be explained as well as the description of the SEA TITAN EU-funded project to develop a new type of Power Take-Off with improved performances.

The CIEMAT (Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas) is a public research body assigned to the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities under the General Secretariat for Scientific Policy Coordination focusing on energy and environment and the technologies related to them. It has offices in several different regions of Spain, and its activity is structured around projects which form a bridge between R&D&I and social interest goals.

Dr.Luis GARCIA TABARES started his professional activity working on Power Electronics and Systems for high-speed trains. Later he started to work in applied superconductivity and particularly in superconducting magnets for Particle Accelerators. He currently leads the Electrical Engineering Division at CIEMAT with two core activities: Energy Generation and Storage (which includes wave energy generation) and Particle Accelerators, including compact accelerators for medical applications. He has been lecturing Electrical Machines for more than 10 years at the Universidad Pontificia de Comillas.

81 QUANTUM TECHNOLOGIES FOR FUNDAMENTAL PHYSICS: THE SCIENCE AND THE TECHNOLOGY LANDSCAPE

CONVENER of THIS KEYNOTE SESSION: Dr. Aurore SAVOY-NAVARRO, CEA-IRFU, University Paris-Saclay and CNRS/IN2P3.

"QUANTUM SENSING” describes the use of a quantum system, quantum properties or quantum phenomena to perform a measurement of a physical quantity. Historical examples of quantum sensors include magnetometers or atomic clocks. More recently, quantum sensing has become a distinct and rapidly growing branch of research within the area of quantum science and technology, with the most common platforms being spin qubits, trapped ions and flux qubits. The field is expected to provide new opportunities – especially with regard to high sensitivity and precision – in applied physics and other areas of science." (Cite from C. L. Degen, F. Reinhard, P. Cappellaro, in ReV of Modern Physics:10.1103/RevModPhys.89.035002)

Quantum sensing will be presented in this keynote session with its application to many key areas of the fundamental Physics (i.e particle physics, particle-astrophysics and cosmology).
This includes atom interferometry, but also other quantum sensing ways of searching for dark matter, neutrino mass, relic neutrinos, measuring fundamental constants, Electric Dipole Moments (EDMs), dark energy and the multiverse.

84 HOW ADVANCED PACKAGING IS CHANGING INTEGRATED CIRCUITS

ABSTRACT of the LECTURE:
For decades semiconductor advancement has depended almost entirely on ever shrinking transistors and wires. This trend, known as Moore's Law, has enabled the modern miracle electronics which we all use and enjoy. Today however, we are reaching the physical limits of shrinking transistors and wires further. Manufacturing today's nanometer transistors requires billions of euros in capital investment and many tens or even hundreds of millions more for each integrated circuit design. Perhaps the worst aspect is the scant improvement these large sums of money actually bring. However, there is a new path forward. One focused on applying advanced packaging technology to integrated circuits.
Advanced packaging uses semiconductor fabrication technologies to integrate smaller chips or "chiplets" into a larger single chip. Using semiconductor manufacturing techniques to accomplish packaging, yields tightly coupled circuitry that acts and performs as if it were built as a single chip. However, the small chiplets can be manufactured in a wide variety of technologies and thus the performance of the combined chiplets can far out perform what could be created as a single monolithic circuit. Chiplets can also be reused in many designs with no redesign or reengineering. Advanced packaging and chiplets are already producing higher performance lower cost integrated circuits with far less capital and development expense and doing so in shorter development cycles.
This talk will discuss advanced semiconductor packaging technologies and how its application can enable more from semiconductors.

CLOSING SCHOOL SESSION: SCIENCE, EDUCATION and IMPACT on SOCIETY

Convener: Prof. Wim BOGAERTS (Gent University and IMEC (BE))

122 WHY FUNDAMENTAL SCIENCE IS ESSENTIAL

Dr. Jose Miguel Jimenez is the head of the Technology Department (TE) at CERN.
The TE Department is responsible for technologies specific to existing particle accelerators, facilities and future projects.
The main domains of activities cover : magnets (superconducting, normal conducting, fast pulsed magnets, electrostatics and magnetic septa), their machine integration and protection, power converters, cryogenics, vacuum systems, coatings and surface treatments.
The TE Department is responsible for injection and extraction systems in the entire accelerator complex for beam transfer lines (conception, commissioning, performance follow-up) between accelerators and primary beam lines up to targets.
The TE provides support to the experimental detectors, mainly for cryogenics vacuum, coatings, surface treatments and power converters.
The dominating part of the activities for the next years is the exploitation of the LHC complex and its upgrades.
The TE Department is responsible to contribute to design studies and to design equipments and systems where necessary for consolidations, upgrades and future CERN projects.
The TE is responsible to guarantee permanence of expertise, follow the state-of-the-art and to develop knowledge in the particle accelerator technology fields.
