About the Ultrawide Bandgap Workshop
The Ultrawide Bandgap (UWBG) Workshop brings together leaders from industry, academia, federal agencies, and the broader R&D community to define the future of next-generation semiconductor technologies.
Hosted by Silicon Crossroads Microelectronics Commons (SCMC) in partnership with NC State University, the workshop moves beyond materials-focused discussions to examine how UWBG device and material performance translates into real-world applications, commercial viability, and mission impact.
Through expert-led sessions and industry-driven dialogue, participants will map performance to high-value application spaces, define critical adoption metrics, assess manufacturing readiness, and identify commercialization pathways aligned with national priorities.
