Recent Awards and Grants at RF-Connect Lab
October 2023:
Dr. Dey has received a funding from United States Department of Agriculture: Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS) as a Co- Principal Investigator (Co-PI) as a part of the Congressional appropriation for an amount of approximately $1.2M.
September 2023:
Dr. Dey has been awarded the prestigious National Science Foundation (NSF) Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Grant as the Principal Investigator (PI). With the generous support of $770,100 from NSF, our lab will be able acquire the state-of-the-art DragonFly IV 3D printer from Nano Dimension. The DragonFly IV provides a hybrid printing system by using simultaneous deposition of dielectric and conductive inks to enable the production of additively manufactured electronic circuits such as multi-layer PCBs, radio frequency devices such as antennas, embedded semiconductors, sensors, and other components for various applications.
