TechConnect 2024 Global Innovation Award
Associate Professor Desmond Loke, together with members from his lab including Dr Go Shao Xiang (SUTD PhD alumnus, Class of 2024) and Mr Lim Kian Guan, have won the TechConnect 2024 Global Innovation Award. The team from the Loke Bio-nanotechnology and Electronics-for-Large-Scale Lab has developed scalable technologies for modulating Medium-doped Amorphous Glass (MAG). This discovery makes it possible for companies to use the unique properties of amorphous glasses to make faster, more reliable, and smaller digital memory devices for use in cars, the internet of things, and AI applications on the edge.
The team participated in the Innovation Challenge, part of the TechConnect World Innovation Conference & Expo which took place from 17 to 19 June 2024, in Washington, DC. Review panel of the challenge included experts from Boeing, Lockheed Martin, NobleReach and TechConnect.
Associate Prof Loke is from the Science, Mathematics and Technology (SMT) Cluster. He researches in areas including Memristive Non-Volatile Memory, Brain-Inspired Neuromorphic Computing, In-Memory Computing, Artificial Synapse.
