Mobile, Integrable, Closed Cycle Cryostat (MIC3)

As part of the CHIPS Act, researchers from NIST are actively pursuing a comprehensive program in metrology research and development aimed at bolstering the U.S. semiconductor industry. A pivotal aspect of their strategic objectives is outlined in one of the seven Grand Challenges—specifically, Grand Challenge 1. This challenge focuses on enhancing metrology tools and measurement science dedicated to assessing the Purity, Properties, and Provenance of materials, which are critical for advancing the semiconductor sector.A targeted initiative under this challenge involves the evaluation of the reliability of both two-dimensional (2D) and wide band gap (WBG) materials and devices. This evaluation is crucial for understanding the robustness and potential applications of these advanced materials in the semiconductor industry. To effectively conduct this research, and particularly to analyze the optical spectroscopy responses of materials
