UC Davis ASEEC laboratory and NSF CHEST Center received the 2020 NSF Computing Innovation Fellow award. As part of the award ASEEC lab is glad to host Dr. Soheil Salehi research on the topic of "SHIELD: Secure Hardware for IoT using Emerging-devices against side-channeL Deep-learning attacks”. This proposal aims to devise novel and effective approaches for securing Internet of Things (IoT) hardware against cutting edge Deep learning-based Power Side-channel Attacks (DeePSAs) using emerging devices. Congratulations to Dr. Soheil Salehi and welcome to UC Davis.

Last week U.S. Representatives Steve Chabot (R-Westwood), Mike Turner (R-Dayton) and Marcia Fudge (D-Cleveland) submitted to the House Rules Committee an amendment to the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act to help bolster cyber security efforts nationwide. The amendment passed last Monday by the U.S.

Professor William Putnam's research group, with collaborators at MIT, has published work demonstrating integrated optical detectors that behave like conventional electronic diodes operating at optical frequencies of ~250 THz. These detectors can sense the instantaneous electric field of rapidly oscillating light waves and may find applications ranging from future remote sensing of astronomical objects to chemical analysis of gases.

Electrical and Computer Engineering Professor Josh Hihath, and the Hihath Research Group have published an article titled, “An On‐Chip Break Junction System for Combined Single‐Molecule Conductance and Raman Spectroscopies” that aims to provide a reliable platform, characterization, and application of single‐molecule electronic systems in the future.

Electrical and Computer Engineering Professor Josh Hihath, and the Hihath Research Group have published an article titled, “Memristive Element Based on an Electrically Controlled Single‐Molecule Reaction” that aims to confront the limits of data storage technologies with molecular scale electronics.

Please join us in congratulating Prof. Houman Homayoun (Electrical and Computer Engineering) in collaboration with Johns Hopkins, Morgan State, and George Mason University Epidemiologist, for receiving National Science Foundation RAPID funding for COVID-19.

Please join us in congratulating Prof. Erkin Şeker (Electrical and Computer Engineering) in collaboration with Prof.

Please join us in congratulating Prof. Erkin Şeker in collaboration with Prof. Maria Marco (Food Science and Technology) and Prof.

The 9th International Symposium on Ultrafast Photonic Technologies (ISUPT) and the Special Symposium on Silicon Photonics of the Future (SSPhF) took place last week June 17-19 at the Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa.
