“Collaboration Opportunities”
In this talk, Albert P. Pisano, Dean of the Jacobs School of Engineering, will describe the wide variety of
collaboration methods and research topics found at the UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering. The
varied modes of collaboration aim to simplify the process of collaboration. Diverse research topics focus
on improving quality of life of everyone in society, from newborn children to octogenarian
grandparents. A large number of specific research projects are currently ready for collaboration and will
be specifically named and reviewed. Topic areas include healthcare, transportation safety, sustainable
energy and solutions for the developing world.

“Enhancing Industry-focused Research with Agile Centers”
The UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering is launching a number of Agile Centers that partner
interdisciplinary researchers with Industry. Centers are designed and focused taking industry partner
interests into account in a flexible and responsive organizational structure. As a result, Industry partners
have the opportunity to work with faculty to shape and sculpt the Center research objectives. Center
researchers and their industry partners then take the discoveries and technologies emerging from the
School's basic research and translate these into innovations that can lead to new products, applications,
and technologies. We have launched Centers focused on Wearable Sensors and on Extreme Events, and
are preparing the launch of Centers in Materials for Energy Storage and Harvesting, Visual Computing,
and Genomic-scale Cellular Engineering. Ultimately we anticipate having 10-15 Agile Centers in the
Jacobs School, working across many disciplines and application spaces in collaboration with unique
Jacobs School resources including the von Liebig Entrepreneurism Center to move discoveries into
innovations that impact the marketplace.

“Heterogeneous Integration of MEMS by Adhesive Bonding”
MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) as switches and filters fabricated on CMOS LSI are needed for
future multi-band wireless systems, in which good mechanical properties or piezoelectric materials are
required for the MEMS and state of the art for the LSI. Such heterogeneous integration can be performed by
transferring MEMS devices fabricated on a carrier wafer to a LSI wafer by adhesive bonding. Wafer level
selective transfer from one carrier wafer to multiple target wafers are needed for cost-effective integration
of different size chips. The selective transfer technology was applied to multiple SAW (surface acoustic wave)
resonators on LSI and tunable SAW filter having variable ferroelectric capacitor.
Distributed tactile sensors are needed on the skin of robots to ensure their safety in nursing care robots. A
tactile sensor network acquires sensing data from each tactile sensor element by autonomous data
transmission (event driven). Capacitive tactile force sensors were formed on a communication LSI by
adhesive bonding using BCB (benzocycrobutene).
An electron emitter array integrated with a 100×100 active-matrix driving LSI has been developed using the
adhesive bonding. Massive parallel EB (electron beam) exposure systems for maskless lithography (digital
fabrication of LSI) are under development. A nc (nanocrystalline)-Si emitter consists of cascaded tunnel
junctions can be controlled at low voltage (10V). Resist patterning by the emitted electron was successfully
confirmed.
Amperometric biosensor in which 20×20 boron doped diamond electrode array are formed on LSI using the
adhesive bonding. Distribution of chemicals like neurotransmitter can be detected owing to a wide potential
window of the diamond electrode.

“Molecularly Stretchable Electronics for Wearable and Mechanically Robust Devices
for Healthcare and Energy”
This presentation will describe the activities of the Center for Wearable Electronics—the first Agile
Center at the Jacobs School of Engineering at UC San Diego—and the activities of my research group in
the area of stretchable electronics based on printed organic semiconductors. Organic semiconductors
are valued for their abilities to transduce a range of mechanical, optical, and electrochemical stimuli.
These materials are thus well suited to wearable and implantable applications in healthcare and
consumer electronics. There is, however, an apparent trade-off between electronic properties and
mechanical properties, and the best performing organic semiconductors are often stiff and brittle. My
research group has uncovered several molecular and microstructural parameters that permit
intrinsically—“molecularly”—stretchable semiconducting materials. The short-term goal of this research
is to increase the mechanical stability of printed, flexible electronic devices (i.e., plastic solar panels) that
do not fail when exposed to rigorous conditions of portable and outdoor environments.
The long-term (though concurrent) goal is to enable a new class of semiconducting polymers whose
properties—extreme elasticity, biodegradability, and the ability to self-heal—are inspired by biological
tissue for applications in wearable and implantable sensors for the prediction, detection, and treatment
of disease.
I will also describe two examples in which members of the Center for Wearable Sensors are
commercializing their inventions: Electrozyme, which is a spin-off using tattoo-based electrochemical
biosensors developed in NanoEngineering Prof. Joseph Wang’s laboratory, and GrollTex, a spin-off
developing a process for the green, roll-to-roll manufacturing of graphene for applications in flexible and
wearable electronics.

“Simulation-based Disaster Prediction and Damage Assessment”
Manmade and natural disasters (blast, fragment-impact, penetration, earthquake, landslide) pose
severe threats to our living environment, and the disaster prediction and mitigation have become a
timely research topic for safeguarding our society. One effective approach for the disaster predication
and mitigation is the computer simulations with robust numerical algorithms. In this presentation, we
will introduce meshfree based computation methods for multi-scale multi-physics simulation of damage
initiation, propagation, and total collapse in structures and systems subjected to extreme events, and
discuss how verification and validation of numerical simulation play an important role in the reliability of
disaster prediction.
The second part of this presentation introduces a recently formed Center for Extreme Events Research
(CEER) at UCSD with specialization in developing state-of-the-art computational and experimental
technologies for protection of critical infrastructure and bio-systems from extreme hazardous events,
and for mitigation of structures and systems after the disasters. A few unique testing facilities, such as
blast simulator and impact testing laboratory, as well as advanced computational techniques, such as
the Reproducing Kernel Particle Method and Isogeometric Analysis, will be highlighted and
demonstrated with a few ongoing projects.

“Automotive Industry and MEMS Sensors”
Automobiles are deeply related to infrastructures such as roads, traffic control systems, the intelligent
transportation system (ITS) and transportation network systems. Some of automobiles have more than a
hundred sensors. They keep running around each and every roads safely with sensors and by means of
cooperating with public systems.
Automobiles are progressing with electronic technologies. Sensors are very important devices which
detect physical and chemical quantities like a human sensory organ. The history of the automotive
sensors is the same as the micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) technology of miniaturization,
reduction in size and weight, high performance, and low cost. Pressure sensors by the piezoresistive
effect are well known. A yaw rate (gyro) sensor is working for an advanced safety of an automobile as a
vehicle stability control (VSC) system. An inertial force sensing system was developed with acceleration
and yaw rate sensors of automobiles. New types of robots developed by us are controlled by the inertial
force sensing system and walk and keep their posture as well as human does. A new tactile sensor
system with nerve net is studying for robots. The sensors in the automotive industry have been
advanced with the MEMS technology. New sensors and devices will be created with the MEMS progress.

“How to Engage with UC San Diego Research Community to Accelerate Your R&D”
This presentation will give a quick overview in Japanese of various modes of collaboration between
industry and UC San Diego with a special focus on the Jacobs School of Engineering. It will discuss the
characteristics and processes for sponsored research, undirected research, center membership, and
visiting industry fellows. In the case of sponsored research, for example, the sponsor stipulates terms
relevant to one or more of the following: confidentiality, publication, copyright, patent rights, liability,
insurance, regulations, allowable costs, subcontracting or any other type of contractual term. On the
other hand, in the case of undirected research, gifts can have a broad general intent but do not contain
a specific scope of work. The talk will then describe the technology licensing process and the technology
acceleration program, with several examples of successful licensing and recent startups.
