At the Nanotexnology Conference, held from July 5 to 12, 2025, in Thessaloniki, Greece, Prof. Christou presented a keynote on “Heterogeneous Integration of Superconductors and Semiconductor Structures for Photonic Arrays.” His talk highlighted breakthroughs in nanoelectronics, particularly the challenges and opportunities in combining superconducting and semiconductor materials to achieve next-generation photonic systems.

At the HITEK 2025 Conference, held in April 2025 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Prof. Aristos Christou delivered a keynote presentation titled “Heterogeneous Integration of Diamond and Related Materials for Advanced Packaging and Novel Devices. In this talk, he explored the role of diamond and other wide bandgap materials in advancing high-power and high-temperature applications.” In this talk, Prof. Christou espoused that diamonds in advanced packaging, as well as the heterogeneous integration of diamonds with dielectrics and semiconductors, are crucial in achieving advanced packaging for high-power and high-temperature applications. Diamond demonstrates extreme hardness, chemical inertness, high thermal conductivity, high hole and electron mobility, high dielectric strength, and high breakdown strength, and has the widest band gap. These properties are ideal for high-power amplifiers and switches, as well as for heat sinks for advanced packaging.
