Progress and Critical Assessment of Large Format Batteries Battery Division, ECSJ Energy Technology, KECS Battery, KECS Physical Electrochemistry

The past decade has been witness to a global boom of low cost renewable generation. To enable continuous use of these emission free sources, a variety of approaches towards energy storage have been designed to enable hours to days storage on a large scale, while minimizing capital cost. This said, incumbent aprotic lithium ion batteries have particularly benefited from cost reduction enabled by economies of production scale. This symposium asks two simple questions: 1) Where does the utility of lithium ion end for stationary storage applications? 2) Where does the utility of non-lithium ion solutions begin for these same applications? Submissions are encouraged on all battery research focusing on the intersection of capital cost and operating cost through innovative study and critical assessment of: • Flow Batteries • Aqueous Batteries • Sodium/Lithium Ion Stationary Systems • Fuel Cells • Electrofuels While we welcome work regarding any approach for large scale grid storage, we particularly appreciate an assessment of how the proposed and studied systems fare under a critical analysis of capital cost, cycle life, and maintenance consideration (temperature stability, safety, etc) in order to foster and seed a conversation on the synergy of all approaches. No issue of ECS Transactions is planned for this symposium.

Thermoelectric and Thermal Interface Materials 6 Electronics and Photonics Division, Energy Technology Division, JSAP

Today’s electronics are smaller and more powerful than ever, and these trends are making heat dissipation from hot spots to heat sinks increasingly more challenging. About 90% of the world’s electricity is generated with an efficiency of 30-40%, which is losing more than half of the energy in the form of waste heat to the environment. Advances in thermoelectric materials and devices with high figures of merit not only offer possible routes of solid-state cooling for electronics but also enable efficient power generation and waste heat recovery. The role of interfaces in heat transfer is becoming increasingly more important for electronics, and advances in both thermoelectric materials and thermal interface materials are required. This symposium will address the most recent developments in thermoelectric materials and thermal interface materials and novel strategies for modern devices and applications. Papers on both fundamental and practical issues are solicited on topics related to 12

thermoelectric material growth, processing, analysis, and applications, as well as thermal interface material applications and properties. The symposium will address basic and applied research and development, which will include the following areas of particular interest: • Advances in bulk and nanoscale material growth methods; • Advances in device processing of thermoelectric and thermal interface materials; • Power generation and energy harvesting; • Solid-state cooling and refrigeration; • Semiconductor materials, growth, and processing; • Phonon transport and engineering; • In situ and ex situ device examination; • Modeling of nanoscale transport effects; • Chalcogenide semiconductors; • Inorganic clathrates; • Group iv and related compounds; • Transition metal silicides; and • High zt materials and devices. This symposium’s proceedings will be published in ECS Transactions and will be available at the meeting.

Materials and Processes for Semiconductor, 2.5 and 3D, Chip Packaging, PCB, FPCB and Wafer Bonding 3 Electronics and Photonics Division, Dielectric Science and Technology Division, Electrodeposition Division, ECSJ Electronics, JSAP

This symposium focuses on issues pertinent to advances in semiconductor interconnects beyond the 10 nm technology node as well as Cu to Cu wafer bonding and integration methods for 2.5D and 3D interconnects. An emerging technology or device architecture called 2.5D and 3D integration is based on the system performance gains that is achieved by chip stacking, wafer bonding and vertically interconnecting distinct device layers. The 2.5D or 3D concept replaces long 2D interconnects with shorter vertical (3D) interconnects, which have the potential to alleviate the well-known interconnect (RC) delay problem that limits the semiconductor industry today. Additional benefits of the 3D process include reduced die size, wafer thickness and the ability to optimize distinct technologies (analog, logic, memory, senor, power device etc.) on separate vertically interconnected layers. Since electrochemical processes are the ultimate solution to create smaller size and lower cost devices, both practical and fundamental aspects of electrochemical processes are of high interest. This symposium will bring researchers together to discuss various aspects of device architecture, novel materials, chemical formulation, packaging approaches and nano-scale fabrication methodologies and Cu to Cu wafer bonding. Topics of interest in 2.5D and 3D integration include, but are not limited to: • 2.5D and 3D process integration methodologies; • 2.5D and 3D design and architectures; • Processing of 2.5D and 3D integrate; • Materials and techniques for die and wafer bonding; • Processing and handling of thin wafers; • Materials for temporary die and wafer bonding; • Vertical interconnect fabrication technology; Call for Papers • PRiME 2020 • Honolulu, HI • October 4-9, 2020 • www.electrochem.org

• Materials for vertical interconnects: insulators, barriers, metals, Cu filling and prevent pumping; • Reliability of 2.5D and 3D interconnects; • Novel test and measurement of 2.5D and 3D integrated devices; and • Thermal management in 2.5D and 3D integrated devices. Topics of interest in new developments in Wafer Bonding include: • Cu to Cu direct bonding; • SiO2 to SiO2 bonding; • Thermo compression bonding; • Eutectic bonding; • Adhesive bonding. Damascene interconnects using copper or cobalt, introduced at the 10 nm node, are expected to be used for the foreseeable future. However, continuous improvements and innovations are necessary to adapt this technology to aggressive scaling demands. Fan-Out and Fan-In Waferlevel packaging also has advanced considerably through the introduction of novel materials and packaging technologies. This symposium will also provide an avenue for pertinent discussion on: • PCB warpage; • Advanced barrier/seed/plating processes including ALD, CVD and electroless deposition; • Novel electrodeposition and CMP processes; • Chip-package interconnection; flip-chip; fan-out wafer level packaging (FOWLP); (C4) technology, Pb-free c4s, wire bonding, and compliant chip-package interconnections. This symposium will be organized / scheduled in close collaboration with the symposium “Semiconductor Wafer Bonding: Science, Technology and Applications 16.” This symposium’s proceedings will be published in ECS Transactions and will be available at the meeting. All authors accepted for presentation are strongly encouraged to submit their full text manuscript for the issue no later than July 2, 2020.

In Vivo Nano Biosensors

Division, Dielectric Science and Technology M03 Sensor Division, Nanocarbons Division, Organic and Biological Electrochemistry Division

Advances in the understanding of optical and electronic properties of nanomaterials has enabled the development of biosensors with novel capabilities. Many of these capabilities also allow detection in living systems which allow for non-destructive/non-invasive and dynamic measurements. New biosensors for in situ measurements are needed. Non-destructive biological measurements enable improved abilities to address biological questions, such as understanding brain function, and they may accelerate drug development processes. In the clinic, the continuous monitoring of critical biomarkers in vivo could be life-saving, with glucose sensors as the successful example of continuous monitoring, revolutionizing diabetes management for patients and clinicians. This session will include papers focusing on the development and application of nanomaterial-based biosensors. Topics may include but are not limited to: sensor materials, sensor design and development, electronic and optical sensors, novel transduction modes, implantable devices, wearable devices, molecular recognition elements, biological applications of sensors, medical applications, clinical applications.

4DMS+SoRo: 4D Materials & Systems + Soft Robotics Sensor Division, Battery Division, Energy Technology Division, Luminescence and Display Materials Division, Nanocarbons Division, Physical and Analytical Electrochemistry Division, JSAP

This conference relates to all aspects of additive manufacturing (3D and 4D printing) of electrochemical or solid state materials and systems with a focus towards soft robotics. 4D printing refers to single-material or multi-material printing of a device or object that can be transformed from a 1D strand into pre-programed 3D shape, from a 2D surface into preprogramed 3D shape and is capable of morphing between different dimensions. Such transformations are facilitated by, e.g., heating, light, or swelling in a liquid, electrochemically and by programming different sensitivity to, e.g., swelling into various parts of the designed geometry. These techniques offer adaptability and dynamic response for structures and systems of all sizes, and promises new possibilities for embedding programmability and simple decision making into non-electronic based materials. Potential applications include; robotics-like behavior without the reliance on complex electro-mechanical-chemical devices as well as adaptive products, garments or mechanisms that respond to user-demands and fluctuating environments. Mechanical metamaterials are structured

materials with mechanical properties defined by their structure rather than their composition. By carefully designing their structure, materials with properties not found in nature, such as negative compressibility (contract when pulled) can be made. Novel developments include the use of elastic instabilities, origami-based materials and programmability, where a single materials function can be changed by pushing. The construction of such materials often relies on forms of (multimaterial) 3D and 4D printing. New innovative technologies and materials processing for energy storage, soft batteries, energy harvesting, display, sensing for soft robotics are also integral part of this conference. This symposium’s proceedings will be published in ECS Transactions and will be available at the meeting. All authors accepted for presentation are strongly encouraged to submit their full text manuscript for the issue no later than July 2, 2020. All manuscripts will be submitted online, and must be in either MS Word or PDF format. Abstracts should be submitted electronically to ECS headquarters, and questions and inquiries should be sent to the symposium organizers: Ajit Khosla, Yamagata University, email: khosla@yz.yamagata-u. ac.jp; Hidemitsu Furukawa, Yamagata University, email: furukawa@ yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp; Larry Nagahara, Johns Hopkins University, email: larry.nagahara@jhu.edu; Alice Suroviec, Berry College, email: asuroviec@berry.edu; Shekhar Bhansali, Florida International University, email: sbhansa@fiu.edu; Yoon Hwa, University of California Berkeley, email: yhwa@berkeley.edu; Thomas G.
