The Solar Technology Workshop dedicated to bring together experts in the convergence area of microelectronics and solar energy. The goals in developing this workshop are three-fold:
-Provide background understanding of the current and future solar technologies focusing on the fundamentals through invited papers and tutorials.
-Provide a forum for discussion to foster interaction and ideally generate insight to create breakthrough solutions to pressing problems.
-Provide a venue for attendees to network with others having similar interests.
The workshop will be held September 5, 2008, at Freescale Semiconductors in Austin, Texas. The workshop was established with the support of IEEE Central Texas Section and Freescale Semiconductor to provide a forum for learning and for open discussion in all areas of Solar Technologies and their applications.
