Electric Drive Technologies Consortium (EDTC)/ Cost competitive, high-Performance, highly Reliable (CPR) Power Devices on 4H-SiC (Final Report)

4H-Silicon carbide (4H-SiC) is a wide bandgap semiconductor that offers superior material properties over silicon, including higher critical electric field, thermal conductivity, and electron saturation velocity. These advantages make 4H-SiC highly attractive for high-voltage, high-efficiency power electronics. However, realizing the full potential of SiC requires device technologies that are not only high-performing but also manufacturable and reliable under real-world operating conditions. This report summarizes the outcomes of a five-year R&D effort funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under the Electric Drive Technologies Consortium (EDTC), focused on developing cost-competitive, high-performance, and highly reliable (CPR) power devices on 4H-SiC substrates. The program targeted scalable and manufacturable 1.2 kV-class SiC MOSFETs optimized for next-generation electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, and industrial power conversion. The project delivered transformative advancements in SiC power device performance and ruggedness. Particularly, Specific on-resistance (R on,sp ) was reduced by up to 37%, from ~4.0 m$\Omega \cdot$cm 2 in earlier designs to an industry-leading 2.40 m$\Omega \cdot$cm 2 , driven by optimized doping, refined JFET widths, and layout engineering. Breakdown voltages (BV) exceeded 1600 V, marking improvement over legacy baselines, and demonstrating the robustness of newly implemented junction profiles and edge terminations. Short-circuit withstand time (SCWT) saw a remarkable 4$\times$ increase, from ~2 $\mu$s to over 8 $\mu$s, achieved through the successful deployment of deep P-well structures (~1.8–2.0 $\mu$m) via channeling implantation. This innovative process breakthrough enabled precise junction formation without MeV-class implantation tools, reduced leakage under high field stress, and allowed even the shortest-channel devices (down to 0.3 $\mu$m) to achieve both high BV and excellent ruggedness—breaking the traditional trade-off between conduction efficiency and blocking capability. Several novel architectures pushed the performance envelope further. JBSFETs—featuring embedded Schottky portions—eliminated bipolar degradation and drastically reduced third-quadrant leakage, while Ladder MOSFETs introduced a clever orthogonal conduction path that achieved a 15.4% reduction in R on,sp over standard linear designs. Switching performance reached new benchmarks: short-channel devices showed a 31% reduction in total switching energy compared to 0.5 $\mu$m counterparts, while maintaining manageable gate drive requirements. Layout-optimized structures not only improved transconductance but also accelerated switching transitions, pointing to real-world benefits in converter-level efficiency. The devices also passed rigorous reliability validation. Stress-tested across TDDB, HTGB, HTRB, HVP, and burn-in, the devices screened under 30 V/10 hr and 43 V/1 s protocols consistently exhibited tighter lifetime distributions and long-term oxide robustness. These screening techniques proved effective in identifying latent defects and ensuring deployment-grade reliability. Meanwhile, advanced 3D TCAD simulations revealed and resolved electric field hotspots—particularly in HEXFET corners—where fields exceeding 4.8 MV/cm were mitigated through geometry-aware layout corrections. Overall, the results of this project demonstrate a manufacturable and scalable SiC power device platform that addresses key DOE performance targets for efficient, robust, and reliable 1.2kV 4H-SiC Power Devices. The developed technologies represent a meaningful step forward in the commercial readiness of high-voltage SiC solutions and provide a strong foundation for continued advancement in wide bandgap power electronics.

Development of a CPU/GPU portable software library for Lagrangian–Eulerian simulations of liquid sprays

The Lagrangian–Eulerian method is widely used for simulations of fuel sprays in turbulent combustion because of the advantage of treating the spray droplets as discrete points. One challenge of the Lagrangian–Eulerian method is the intense computational requirement when tracking the large number of Lagrangian particles needed for high fidelity. We have developed a performance-portable library, Grit, to track the Lagrangian particles in parallel on central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU) accelerated high performance computing (HPC) architectures. Grit is a C++ library which employs Message Passing Interface (MPI) for distributed memory parallelism and Kokkos programming model for on-node shared memory parallelism with performance portability across different architectures of GPUs and multi-core/manycore CPUs. The parallel algorithms, key parallel kernels, and their performances on the pre-exascale supercomputer, Summit, are presented. Grit is coupled with a direct numerical simulation (DNS) solver, S3D, for multiphase simulations. A conservative formulation has been developed and implemented in Grit for phase coupling with thermodynamic consistency. The formulation separates the conservation of mass, momentum and energy from the physical models to prevent accidental violation of conservation laws due to inconsistent models. The formulation also enforces consistent definitions of enthalpies of the fuel for both phases and the latent heat of evaporation. Finally, simulations of turbulent particle-laden flow and the evaporation of dilute turbulent spray jet are performed to verify the software implementation, and to demonstrate the scalability of Grit for large-scale multiphase simulations.

One-Step Transfer of Symmetric and Asymmetric Contacts for Large-Scale 2D Electronics and Optoelectronics

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are highly promising candidates for thin-film transistor applications due to their scalability, transferability, atomic thickness, and relatively high carrier mobility. However, a substantial performance gap remains between individual devices based on single-crystalline 2D films and wafer-scale integrated circuits, primarily due to defects introduced during conventional fabrication processes. Here, we report a diamond-assisted electrode transfer technique for the van der Waals integration of wafer-scale prefabricated electrode arrays onto 2D materials, enabling scalable electronics and optoelectronics. Implemented on metal–organic chemical vapor deposition-grown monolayer molybdenum disulfide, this method forms ultraclean metal–semiconductor interfaces, yielding field-effect transistors with excellent ohmic contacts, a low contact resistance of 400 Ω·μm, and a Schottky barrier height of only 9 meV. Furthermore, we demonstrate a scalable transistor array on monolayer molybdenum disulfide with excellent device performance uniformity, achieving an average field-effect mobility of 30 cm 2 V –1 s –1 and an on/off current ratio exceeding 105. Additionally, high photocurrent and responsivity were demonstrated in the array devices, showing their potential for excellent image detection. We further demonstrate the versatility of this technique by fabricating a Schottky diode array through a single-step transfer of asymmetric electrodes─low work function aluminum and high work function gold─onto monolayer tungsten diselenide. This approach provides a clean, effective solution for contact engineering in 2D materials, offering a viable pathway toward wafer-scale, high-performance 2D electronics, optoelectronics, and integrated circuits.

Enhancing surface activity and durability in triple conducting electrode for protonic ceramic electrochemical cells

With the material system operating at lower temperatures, protonic ceramic electrochemical cells (PCECs) can offer high energy efficiency and reliable performance for both power generation and hydrogen production, making them a promising technology for reversible energy cycling. However, PCEC faces technical challenges, particularly regarding electrode activity and durability under high current density operations. To address these challenges, we introduce a nano-architecture oxygen electrode characterized by high porosity and triple conductivity, designed to enhance catalytic activity and interfacial stability through a self-assembly approach, while maintaining scalability. Electrochemical cells incorporating this advanced electrode demonstrate robust performance, achieving a peak power density of 1.50 W cm −2 at 600 °C in fuel cell mode and a current density of 5.04 A cm −2 at 1.60 V in electrolysis mode, with enhanced stability on transient operations and thermal cycles. The underlying mechanisms are closely related to the improved surface activity and mass transfer due to the dual features of the electrode structure. Additionally, the enhanced interfacial bonding between the oxygen electrode and electrolyte contributes to increased durability and thermomechanical integrity. This study underscores the critical importance of optimizing electrode microstructure to achieve a balance between surface activity and durability.

Bringing randomized algorithms to mainstream numerical linear algebra

Numerical linear algebra (NLA) underpins huge swaths of computational science and engineering. For scientists and engineers to make the most of the DOE’s computing resources, it is essential that they have access to high-performance implementations of algorithms with best-in-class scalability and reliability. Despite this, prevailing NLA libraries have little to no support for breakthrough algorithms from the field of randomized numerical linear algebra (RandNLA) that have been developed over the past twenty years. The goal of this LDRD was to break a log-jam that had prevented broad adoption of RandNLA. Our work had two thrusts. The first was to develop RandBLAS: a trustworthy and high-performance C++ library for randomized dimension reduction (an operation widely known as sketching). The second was the development of a novel randomized algorithm for computing a challenging type of matrix decomposition known as Householder QR with column pivoting (Householder QRCP). In this one-year late-start LDRD we successfully delivered RandBLAS 1.0 and new CPU and GPU codes for Householder QRCP. RandBLAS has extensive documentation at https://randblas.readthedocs.io/en/stable/. Papers on RandBLAS and and our high-performance QRCP codes are forthcoming.

An innovative heterogeneous transfer learning framework to enhance the scalability of deep reinforcement learning controllers in buildings with integrated energy systems

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL)-based control shows enhanced performance in the management of integrated energy systems when compared with Rule-Based Controllers (RBCs), but it still lacks scalability and generalisation due to the necessity of using tailored models for the training process. Transfer Learning (TL) is a potential solution to address this limitation. However, existing TL applications in building control have been mostly tested among buildings with similar features, not addressing the need to scale up advanced control in real-world scenarios with diverse energy systems. This paper assesses the performance of an online heterogeneous TL strategy, comparing it with RBC and offline and online DRL controllers in a simulation setup using EnergyPlus and Python. The study tests the transfer in both transductive and inductive settings of a DRL policy designed to manage a chiller coupled with a Thermal Energy Storage (TES). The control policy is pre-trained on a source building and transferred to various target buildings characterised by an integrated energy system including photovoltaic and battery energy storage systems, different building envelope features, occupancy schedule and boundary conditions (e.g., weather and price signal). The TL approach incorporates model slicing, imitation learning and fine-tuning to handle diverse state spaces and reward functions between source and target buildings. Results show that the proposed methodology leads to a reduction of 10% in electricity cost and between 10% and 40% in the mean value of the daily average temperature violation rate compared to RBC and online DRL controllers. Moreover, online TL maximises self-sufficiency and self-consumption by 9% and 11% with respect to RBC. Conversely, online TL achieves worse performance compared to offline DRL in either transductive or inductive settings. However, offline Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) agents should be trained at least for 15 episodes to reach the same level of performance as the online TL. Therefore, the proposed online TL methodology is effective, completely model-free and it can be directly implemented in real buildings with satisfying performance.

Evaluation of a scientific data search infrastructure

The ability to search over large scientific datasets has become crucial to next-generation scientific discoveries as data generated from scientific facilities grow dramatically. In previous work, we developed and deployed ScienceSearch, a search infrastructure for scientific data which uses machine learning to automate metadata creation. Our current deployment is deployed atop a container based platform at a HPC center. In this article, we present an evaluation and discuss our experiences with the ScienceSearch infrastructure. Specifically, we present a performance evaluation of ScienceSearch's infrastructure focusing on scalability trends. The obtained results show that ScienceSearch is able to serve up to 130 queries/min with latency under 3 s. We discuss our infrastructure setup and evaluation results to provide our experiences and a perspective on opportunities and challenges of our search infrastructure.

Mechanisms of Interface Cleaning in Heterostructures Made from Polymer‐Contaminated Graphene

Abstract Heterostructures obtained from layered assembly of 2D materials such as graphene and hexagonal boron nitride have potential in the development of new electronic devices. Whereas various materials techniques can now produce macroscopic scale graphene, the construction of similar size heterostructures with atomically clean interfaces is still unrealized. A primary barrier has been the inability to remove polymeric residues from the interfaces that arise between layers when fabricating heterostructures. Here, the interface cleaning problem of polymer‐contaminated heterostructures is experimentally studied from an energy viewpoint. With this approach, it is established that the interface cleaning mechanism involves a combination of thermally activated polymer residue mobilization and their mechanical actuation. This framework allows a systematic approach for fabricating record large‐area clean heterostructures from polymer‐contaminated graphene. These heterostructures provide state‐of‐the‐art electronic performance. This study opens new strategies for the scalable production of layered materials heterostructures.

A scalable framework for quantifying field-level agricultural carbon outcomes

Agriculture contributes nearly a quarter of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which is motivating interest in adopting certain farming practices that have the potential to reduce GHG emissions or sequester carbon in soil. The related GHG emission (including N 2 O and CH 4 ) and changes in soil carbon stock are defined here as “agricultural carbon outcomes”. Accurate quantification of agricultural carbon outcomes is the basis for achieving emission reductions for agriculture, but existing approaches for measuring carbon outcomes (including direct measurements, emission factors, and process-based modeling) fall short of achieving the required accuracy and scalability necessary to support credible, verifiable, and cost-effective measurement and improvement of these carbon outcomes. Here we propose a foundational and scalable framework to quantify field-level carbon outcomes for farmland, which is based on the holistic carbon balance of the agroecosystem: Agroecosystem Carbon Outcomes = Environment (E) × Management (M) × Crop (C). Following a comprehensive review of the scientific challenges associated with existing approaches, as well as their tradeoffs between cost and accuracy, we propose that the most viable path for the quantification of field-level carbon outcomes in agricultural land is through an effective integration of various approaches (e.g. diverse observations, sensor/in-situ data, and modeling), defined as the “System-of-Systems” solution. Such a “System-of-Systems” solution should simultaneously comprise the following components: (1) scalable collection of ground truth data and cross-scale sensing of environment variables (E), management practices (M), and crop conditions (C) at the local field level; (2) advanced modeling with necessary processes to support the quantification of carbon outcomes; (3) systematic Model-Data Fusion (MDF), i.e. robust and efficient methods to integrate sensing data and models at each local farmland level; (4) high computation efficiency and artificial intelligence (AI) to scale to millions of individual fields with low cost; and (5) robust and multi-tier validation systems and infrastructures to ensure solution fidelity and true scalability, i.e. the ability of a solution to perform robustly with accepted accuracy on all targeted fields. In this regard, we provide here the detailed scientific rationale, current progress, and future research and development (R&D) priorities to achieve different components of the “System-of-Systems” solution, thus accomplishing the Environment×Management×Crop framework to quantify field-level agricultural carbon outcomes.

Effects of B 2 O 3 on the Growth, Structural, and Magneto-Optical Properties of Yttrium Iron Garnet Single-Crystal Fibers

This study explores the fabrication of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) single crystal fibers using the laser heated pedestal growth (LHPG) method with the experimental addition of B 2 O 3 . The incorporation of B 2 O 3 facilitates the fiber fabrication process by lowering the required growth temperatures and likely modifying melt viscosity behavior, consistent with the established fluxing behavior of B2O3 and the comparative viscosity trend observed in the TMA−VFT analysis, thereby improving process efficiency while maintaining fiber quality. Structural characterization using EBSD and SC-XRD reveals a transition from polycrystalline to single-crystal behavior, with improved alignment along the [111] direction without altering the garnet structure. Magnetic measurements show increases in saturation magnetization in B 2 O 3 -assisted fibers. Three-dimensional anisotropy energy modeling, based on EBSD-derived Euler angles, indicates that the enhanced crystallinity and orientation contribute to reorientation of MCA energy distribution due to improved crystallographic alignment. Faraday rotation measurements show that the B 2 O 3 -assisted sample exhibits a rotation angle closer to reported values for high-quality YIG, suggesting improved phase purity and crystallographic quality. These findings demonstrate that B 2 O 3 -assisted LHPG growth is a scalable and nontoxic approach to producing high-performance YIG fibers for integrated photonic and magnetic field sensing applications.

Toward Scalable Perovskite Solar Modules Using Blade Coating and Rapid Thermal Processing

Toward scalable manufacturing of perovskite solar panels, high-performance planar p–i–n perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) and modules have been demonstrated with blade coating and rapid thermal processing (RTP). The PVSCs made using RTP for less than 30 s have equivalent photovoltaic performance as devices fabricated from hot-plate annealing for 2 min. The resulting PVSCs show the best average power conversion efficiency (PCE) of over 18.47% from forward and reverse scans. Mini-modules with an active area of over 2.7 cm 2 exhibit a champion average PCE of over 17.73% without apparent hysteresis. To the best of our knowledge, these efficiencies are the highest for PVSCs processed by the combination of blade coating and RTP. Furthermore, both the blade coating and RTP were performed in an ambient environment, paving the way for the large-scale production of PVSCs through high-speed roll-to-roll printing.

Solving sparse finite element problems on neuromorphic hardware

The finite element method (FEM) is one of the most important and ubiquitous numerical methods for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) on computers for scientific and engineering discovery. Applying the FEM to larger and more detailed scientific models has driven advances in high-performance computing for decades. Here we demonstrate that scalable spiking neuromorphic hardware can directly implement the FEM by constructing a spiking neural network that solves the large, sparse, linear systems of equations at the core of the FEM. We show that for the Poisson equation, a fundamental PDE in science and engineering, our neural circuit achieves meaningful levels of numerical accuracy and close to ideal scaling on modern, inherently parallel and energy-efficient neuromorphic hardware, specifically Intel’s Loihi 2 neuromorphic platform. We illustrate extensions to irregular mesh geometries in both two and three dimensions as well as other PDEs such as linear elasticity. Our spiking neural network is constructed from a recurrent network model of the brain’s motor cortex and, in contrast to black-box deep artificial neural network-based methods for PDEs, directly translates the well-understood and trusted mathematics of the FEM to a natively spiking neuromorphic algorithm.

GPU acceleration of rank-reduced coupled-cluster singles and doubles

Here, we have developed a graphical processing unit (GPU) accelerated implementation of our recently introduced rank-reduced coupled-cluster singles and doubles (RR-CCSD) method. RR-CCSD introduces a low-rank approximation of the doubles amplitudes. This is combined with a low-rank approximation of the electron repulsion integrals via Cholesky decomposition. The result of these two low-rank approximations is the replacement of the usual fourth-order CCSD tensors with products of second- and third-order tensors. In our implementation, only a single fourth-order tensor must be constructed as an intermediate during the solution of the amplitude equations. Owing in large part to the compression of the doubles amplitudes, the GPU-accelerated implementation shows excellent parallel efficiency (95% on eight GPUs). Our implementation can solve the RR-CCSD equations for up to 400 electrons and 1550 basis functions—roughly 50% larger than the largest canonical CCSD computations that have been performed on any hardware. In addition to increased scalability, the RR-CCSD computations are faster than the corresponding CCSD computations for all but the smallest molecules. We test the accuracy of RR-CCSD for a variety of chemical systems including up to 1000 basis functions and determine that accuracy to better than 0.1% error in the correlation energy can be achieved with roughly 95% compression of the ov space for the largest systems considered. We also demonstrate that conformational energies can be predicted to be within 0.1 kcal mol -1 with efficient compression applied to the wavefunction. Finally, we find that low-rank approximations of the CCSD doubles amplitudes used in the similarity transformation of the Hamiltonian prior to a conventional equation-of-motion CCSD computation will not introduce significant errors (on the order of a few hundredths of an electronvolt) into the resulting excitation energies.

Fully self-consistent finite-temperature $GW$ in Gaussian Bloch orbitals for solids

In this work, we present algorithmic and implementation details for the fully self-consistent finite-temperature $GW$ method in Gaussian Bloch orbitals for solids. Our implementation is based on the finite-temperature Green's function formalism in which all equations are solved on the imaginary axis, without resorting to analytical continuation during the self-consistency. No quasiparticle approximation is employed and all matrix elements of the self-energy are explicitly evaluated. The method is tested by evaluating the band gaps of selected semiconductors and insulators. We show agreement with other, differently formulated, finite-temperature sc ⁢$GW$ implementations when finite-size corrections and basis-set errors are taken into account. By migrating computationally intensive calculations to graphics processing units, we obtain scalable results on large supercomputers with nearly optimal performance. Our work demonstrates the applicability of Gaussian orbital based sc⁢ $GW$ for ab initio correlated material simulations and provides a sound starting point for embedding methods built on top of $GW$.

Ecosystems for Scientific Computing in the Age of AI

Scientific computing is at an inflection point. Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping how scientific software is developed, how teams collaborate, how projects are governed, and how the next generation is trained. Drawing on insights from a 2025 workshop report, this article argues that the future of discovery will depend on agile, robust ecosystems built through socio-technical co-design—the intentional integration of technical and human systems. This perspective is essential for ensuring that future scientific computing remains trustworthy, sustainable, and scalable. It combines advances in AI, high-performance computing, and software with new models for cross-disciplinary collaboration, education, and workforce development. Key recommendations include building modular, trustworthy AI-enabled software ecosystems; enabling teams to integrate AI into scientific workflows while preserving human creativity, integrity, and rigor; and developing adaptive training pathways that keep pace with rapid technological change. By sharing these perspectives, we hope to stimulate broader community dialogue and encourage coordinated action.

Trust: Triangle Counting Reloaded on GPUs

Triangle counting is a building block for a wide range of graph applications. Here, traditional wisdom suggests that i) hashing is not suitable for triangle counting, ii) edge-centric triangle counting beats vertex-centric design, and iii) communication-free and workload balanced graph partitioning is a grand challenge for triangle counting. On the contrary, we advocate that i) hashing can help the key operations for scalable triangle counting on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), i.e., list intersection and graph partitioning, ii) vertex-centric option reduces both hash table construction cost and memory consumption, which is limited on GPUs. In addition, iii) we exploit graph and workload collaborative, and hash-based 2D partitioning to scale vertex-centric triangle counting over 1,000 GPUs with sustained scalability. In this work, we present TRUST, which performs triangle counting with the hash operation and vertex-centric paradigm. To the best of our knowledge, TRUST is the first work that achieves over one trillion Traversed Edges Per Second (TEPS) rate for triangle counting.

Two-Stage Reinforcement Learning Policy Search for Grid-Interactive Building Control

This paper develops an intelligent grid-interactive building controller, which optimizes building operation during both normal hours and demand response (DR) events. To avoid costly on-demand computation and to adapt to non-linear building models, the controller utilizes reinforcement learning (RL) and makes real-time decisions based on a near-optimal control policy. Learning such a policy typically amounts to solving a hard non-convex optimization problem. We propose to address this problem with a novel global-local policy search method. In the first stage, an RL algorithm based on zero-order gradient estimation is leveraged to search for the optimal policy globally, due to its scalability and the potential to escape some poor performing local optima. The obtained policy is then fine-tuned locally to bring the first-stage solution closer to that of the original unsmoothed problem. Experiments on a simulated five-zone commercial building demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method over existing learning approaches. They also show that the learned control policy outperforms a pragmatic linear model predictive controller (MPC) and approaches the performance of an oracle MPC in testing scenarios. Using a state-of-the-art advanced computing system, we demonstrate that the controller can be learned and deployed within hours of training.

Two-Level Sketching Alternating Anderson Acceleration for Complex Physics Applications

We present a novel two-level sketching extension of the Alternating Anderson–Picard (AAP) method for accelerating fixed-point iterations in challenging single- and multiphysics simulations governed by discretized PDEs. Our approach combines a static, physics-based projection that reduces the least-squares (LS) problem to the most informative field (e.g., via Schur-complement insight) with a dynamic, algebraic sketching stage driven by a backward stability analysis under Lipschitz continuity. We introduce inexpensive estimators for stability thresholds and cache-aware randomized selection strategies to balance computational cost against memory access overhead. The resulting algorithm solves reduced LS systems in place, minimizes memory footprints, and seamlessly alternates between low-cost Picard updates and Anderson mixing. Implemented in Julia, our two-level sketching AAP achieves up to 50% time-to-solution reductions compared to standard Anderson acceleration—without degrading convergence rates—on benchmark problems including Stokes, 𝑝-Laplacian, bidomain, and Navier–Stokes formulations at varying problem sizes. These results demonstrate the method’s robustness, scalability, and potential for integration into high-performance scientific computing frameworks. Our implementation is available open source in the AAP.jl library.
