Recently, Dr. CHEN Wenchao was awarded the grant from the Natural Science Foundation of Zhejiang Province for Distinguished Young Scholars, titled "Electromagnetics and Multiphysics Compatibility Design of Three-Dimensional Heterogenous Integrated Circuits." This program is established by the Natural Science Foundation of Zhejiang Province to support outstanding young scholars to carry out original and innovative research.

Multiphysics coupling processes, including electromagnetic-thermal-stress in high-density 3D heterogeneous ICs, can degrade the performance and reliability of devices/circuits, and the Multiphysics compatibility design is one of the most important issues for advanced integration technology. The project, led by Prof. CHEN Wenchao, intends to conduct research on the multiscale Multiphysics simulation methods in 3D heterogeneous ICs.
