Researchers at the University of North Texas College of Engineering are leading a new consortium to further the science and applications of emerging semiconducting materials toward electronic, photonic and sensing technologies. These technologies will help advance national security capabilities, while also training a diverse workforce in these key disciplines through funding received from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) National Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA). 
The Consortium on Sensing, Energy-Efficient Electronics, Photonics with 2D Materials and Integrated Technologies (SEEP-IT) will receive $1 million annually over the next five years, totaling $5 million, specifically from the DOE-NNSA Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program.
