Outcome of Consultation Exercise
Background
The `GCs in Silicon Technology' roadmap document was produced as one of the
main outputs from the EPSRC-funded network of researchers 'Silicon for the
Nanotechnology era', a collaborative effort to which the following institutions
contributed: Birmingham, Cambridge, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Imperial College,
Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Queen's Belfast, Sheffield, Southampton,
Surrey and Warwick. The network ended in 2006.
The GCs are divided into two sets; the first four grand challenges were identified
specific areas of strength in the UK whilst GC5-8 have been selected as flagship
projects aligned with EPSRC 2008-2011 delivery plan themes:
· GC1 Novel devices and Processes Using Silicon Based Technologies
· GC2 Modelling and Simulation for Silicon Based Technologies
· GC3 Characterisation for Silicon Based Technologies
