Designed to grow two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides\, i ncluding MoS₂\, at temperatures below 450 °C\, NanoGalaxy combines plas ma activation and in-situ ultraviolet illumination to support low-temperat ure growth and defect control. We will discuss how this approach addresses the thermal constraints of back-end-of-line integration and opens a path to building successive layers of active devices above existing circuitry. We will then introduce Sophon\, PhantaField’s monolithic 3D AI accelerat or architecture. Its 64-tier reference design interleaves logic and memory above a mature 28 nm silicon base\, targeting 330 GB of embedded DRAM and 2.1 PB/s of local weight bandwidth.\n\nConnecting materials\, manufacturi ng\, and architecture\, the presentation will examine the device-performan ce requirements\, integration challenges\, and potential system-level bene fits of this approach. The central theme is a path toward brain-scale inte lligence through atomic-scale technology—not simply by scaling with more electricity\, but by rethinking how computation and memory are built toge ther.\n\nRead More: [A subthermionic tunnel field-effect transistor with a n atomically thin channel](https://www.nature.com/articles/nature15387)[Ph antaField PFG-1 Sophon Whitepaper](https://www.phantafield.com/whitepaper) \n\nSpeaker:\n\nDr. Xuejun Xie\n\nFounder & CEO PhantaField Inc\n\nAGENDA: \n\nThursday September 17\, 2026\n\n11:30 AM: Networking\, Pizza & Drinks\ n\nNoon -- 1 pm: Seminar\n\nPlease register on Eventbrite before 9:30 AM o n Thursday September 17\, 2026\n\n$4 IEEE members $6 non IEEE members\n\n( discounts for unemployed and students )\n\nBldg: ==> Use corner entrance: Kifer Road / San Lucar Court ==> Do not enter at main entrance on Kifer Ro ad\, EAG Labs\, 810 Kifer Road\, Sunnyvale\, California\, California\, Uni ted States\, 95051 LOCATION:Bldg: ==> Use corner entrance: Kifer Road / San Lucar Court ==> Do not enter at main entrance on Kifer Road\, EAG Labs\, 810 Kifer Road\, Su nnyvale\, California\, California\, United States\, 95051 ORGANIZER:G.M.Friedman@ieee.org SEQUENCE:20 SUMMARY:2D Materials for Monolithic 3D AI Computing URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/577071 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><div class="eds-l-mar-vert-6 eds-l-sm-mar-ver t-4 eds-text-bm structured-content-rich-text">\n<div class="eds-text--left ">\n<h3><span style="font-size: 24pt\;"><strong>Brain-Scale Intelligence w ith Atomic-Scale Technology: From 2D Materials to Monolithic 3D AI Computi ng</strong></span></h3>\n</div>\n</div>\n<div class="eds-l-mar-vert-6 eds- l-sm-mar-vert-4 eds-text-bm structured-content-rich-text">\n<div class="ed s-text--left">\n<div id="creator-nav-root">\n<div class="creator-workspace -layout events-workspace creator-workspace-layout-without-header" data-tes tid="creator-workspace-layout">\n<div class="creator-workspace--no-tabs" d ata-testid="creator-workspace-main">\n<div class="eds-structure eds-struct ure--min-height eds-structure--independent-scrolling">\n<div class="eds-st ructure__body">\n<div class="eds-structure__main-mask" data-spec="eds-stru cture-main-mask">\n<div class="event-level-container">\n<div id="root">\n< div class="eds-structure eds-structure--min-height eds-structure--independ ent-scrolling" data-spec="eds-structure">\n<div class="eds-structure__body eds-structure__body--overflow-set">\n<div class="eds-structure__main-mask eds-structure__main-mask--overflow-set" data-spec="eds-structure-main-mas k">\n<div class="eds-structure__fixed-bottom-bar-layout-wrapper eds-struct ure__fixed-bottom-bar-layout-wrapper--absolute">\n<div class="eds-fixed-bo ttom-bar-layout eds-fixed-bottom-bar-layout--absolute" data-spec="fixed-bo ttom-bar-layout">\n<div class="eds-fixed-bottom-bar-layout__content">\n<di v class="eds-structure__main-container"><main class="eds-structure__main" data-spec="eds-structure-main">\n<section class="eds-layout eds-layout--ha s-horizontal-gutters" data-spec="eds-layout">\n<div class="eds-layout__bod y" data-spec="eds-layout__body">\n<div class="Form-module__wrapper___1sKak "><form class="css-10oami3 e1ft4gvv1" name="DetailsForm" novalidate="" d ata-testid="EventCreateDetailsForm">\n<div class="css-188aeyp e9y8vn50">\n <div id="AboutThisEventSection" class="css-1g9pewn em1van10" tabindex="0" role="button" data-testid="AboutThisEventSection" aria-label="Overview.
