© 2008, American Society for Engineering Education IntroductionPhotonic Crystals (PCs) are a new and promising technology that could enable high efficiencyemission devices and fast computing devices. Composed of periodic dielectric or metallic-cum-dielectric structures as shown in Fig. 1, PCs are designed to control the propagation ofelectromagnetic waves (EM) in ways similar to how the periodic potential in a semiconductorcrystal controls electron motion by defining allowed and forbidden electronic energy bands. Anelectromagnetic wave passing throughout an array of periodic scatterers will undergo destructiveinterference for certain combinations of wave-vectors at certain frequencies, thus

A group of faculty members and/or students drawn from the colleges of arts,business, education, and engineering have worked together over the past two years, not only to buildbridges, but also to chalk up several positive outcomes. Our model has potential to be self-sustaining so itcan be used to expand/scale up our model to include other groups and colleges in the ensuing years. Theinfrastructure built will benefit the university, partnering colleges, faculty, & students, whilestrengthening the social fabric of the university and lowering technology barrier so one can continue tofocus on their passion, while benefitting from the rapid advances in science and engineering.IntroductionSmart phone applications are growing

Whatever the methodology, cooling must be a part ofan integrated, chip-to-system design1.Who will perform this research and develop these new designs? While undergraduate mechanicalengineering curricula include a class on heat transfer, the cooling of electronics typically receiveslittle or no attention. Most industrial work in this area is performed by engineers with advanceddegrees and significant training on-the-job.
