Semiconductor industry and the national laboratories: part of a national strategy
Book
·
OSTI ID:5732669
To facilitate greater cooperation between the national laboratories and the semiconductor industry, several suggestions were made. (1) A dialogue between the semiconductor industry and the national laboratories should be initiated and formalized to identify appropriate research projects and to negotiate pragmatic solutions to issues like data access, ownership and publication rights, cost sharing, scheduling, and technology transfer mechanisms. (2) A standing advisory council with representatives from industry and the various national laboratories could be formed to facilitate this dialogue and to serve as a forum for the discussion of issues. Such a council could develop a broad agreement on the generic issues involved in cooperation and coordinate the overall cooperative effort. (3) There are opportunities for the national laboratories to continue existing projects and to initiate new research that would be beneficial to the industry. However, to maximize the effectiveness of this research, the mission of the laboratories needs to be expanded to include research in semiconductor-related science and technology. Additional funding will also be needed to provide the laboratories with sufficient resources to make an effective contribution to the long-term competitiveness of the semiconductor industry. There was broad agreement at the workshop that the federal government in general, and the national laboratories in particular, have a role to play in restoring US competitiveness in semiconductors.
