*      Superconducting qubit and cryo-CMOS circuits
*      Resonators and switches
*      MEMS-engine for LIDAR
*      Piezo-on-nitride transducers for atom-mechanics
Expertise in many and most of Microfabrication, PiezoMEMS, Photonics, Quantum Mechanics, Microwave circuits, PCB design, ADS/HFSS, Comsol, Python and Labview is required.
Please send CV to bhave at purdue.edu<mailto:bhave at purdue.edu>  if you are interested.link<http://interested.link>





Purdue Strengthens Campus Face Mask Protocols; Masks Required for All Indoors



Effective today (Aug. 2), face masks will again be required in all indoor spaces for everyone on Purdue's West Lafayette campus, including students, employees and visitors, regardless of vaccination status.

Full Protect Purdue masking protocols<https://maillinks.purdue.edu/t/41720214/1526138613/84541317/0/122723/?x=9ac9d35e> are available online.



BNC Purchasing Procedures and Virtual Conference Registrations



With the start of the new semester quickly approaching and also seeing a rise in the number of personal reimbursements being submitted I wanted to send a gentle reminder of Birck's purchasing procedures and how to register for virtual conferences and workshops.

Please remember that instead of using your personal card for work related purchases, they should be purchased either through Ariba using Purdue's pre-approved vendors or with a departmental credit card.  Purdue is a tax exempt organization and when purchasing through Ariba or with a departmental credit card, taxes are deducted.

The following link outlines the BNC purchasing procedure along with the purchase request form: https://www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/birck/for-birck-users/order.php.  Brenda Meador (meador3 at purdue.edu<mailto:meador3 at purdue.edu>) or Nancy Black (blackn at purdue.edu<mailto:blackn at purdue.edu>) can then help you to place the order.

When registering for a virtual conference or workshop please reference the below instructions provided by Purdue's travel department.

Online Conference and Workshop Registrations

  *   A travel waiver is not required for online conference or workshop registrations. Fees of $1,000 or more should be reviewed by the appropriate business office before the conference or registration is booked.
  *   Online conferences should be paid by:
     *   Individuals who have a Purdue Travel Card:
        *   Request a temporary card increase using the online form.<https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_29btpe6iXd002b3?_ga=2.21922812.670833682.1587985451-1851295025.1559759579>
        *   Enter the conference fee in the "Single Transaction $$ Increase to" field.
        *   Select attend a Virtual Conference.
        *   Submit the form.
     *   Individuals without a Purdue Travel Card:
        *   Department Purchasing Card should be used.
        *   If the charge does not go through, contact pcard at purdue.edu<mailto:pcard at purdue.edu> for assistance. The Merchant Category Code (MCC) may need to be opened for the card to post.

If you have any questions on BNC purchasing or virtual conference registrations, please feel free to contact Brenda, Nancy or myself.
