1. INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION © IEC:2007 IEC TC 113 Nanotechnology Standardization for Electrical and Electronic Products and Systems 12 February 2008 SMB Update Dr. J. Thomas Chapin, Chair Dr. Norbert Fabricius, Secretary

2. 2 Standardization of the technologies relevant to electrical and electronic products and systems in the field of nanotechnology in close cooperation with other IEC committees and ISO TC 229. 1. Components / intermediate assemblies created from nano-scaled materials and processes. 2. Properties and functionalities of these components / intermediate assemblies are electrical or electro-optical. 3. Final products using these components / intermediate assemblies are typically within the scope of other IEC TC's 4. Fields of activities are for example: a)electronics, b)optical aspects addressed by IEC TC’s, c)magnetics and electromagnetics, d)electroacoustics, e)multimedia and telecommunication, f)energy production (direct conversion into electrical power like in fuel cells, photovoltaic devices, storage of electrical energy). 5. Specific topics: Terminology, measurement, characterization, performance, reliability and safety and environment related to the nanoscale. Scope and SPS of IEC TC113

4. 4 IEC TC 113 ISO TC 229 WG3: Health, safety environment JWG2: Measurement, characterization JWG1: Terminology, nomenclature WG3: Performance assessment International Standardisation in Nanotechnology Appointed Observer A-liaison IEC TC's SEMI IEEE D-liaison TC47 TC86 TC111 D-Liaisons: SEMI and IEEE (under SMB ballot)

5. 5  JWG 1: "Terminology and Nomenclature"  Scope: Define and develop unambiguous and uniform terminology and nomenclature in the field of nanotechnologies to facilitate communication and to promote common understanding.  JWG 2: "Measurement and Characterization"  Scope: Standardization of metrology and test methods and consideration of reference materials used to characterize properties of mainly materials and structures in the field of nanotechnologies.  WG 3: "Performance assessment"  Scope: To develop standards for the assessment of performance, reliability, and durability related to the nanotechnology-enabled aspects of components and systems in support of continuous improvement at all stages of the value adding chain. Working Group Structure of IEC TC113

6. 6 Liaison between IEC TC113 and ISO TC229  Every two years there will be a co-allocated plenary meeting to improve networking between the TC’s.  Chairman and Secretary attend the plenary meetings of the other committee.  Two Joint Working Groups with Convener and Co- Convener from both TC’s.  Regular consultancy of the officers of both TC’s.  Common IEC/ISO standards with coordinated voting are under consideration.  Common workshops will take place (e.g. 26.2.2008 - 28.2.2008, Gaithersburg, NIST USA).

7. 7 IEC TC 113 WG3 Programme of Work  Standards to characterize nano-specific product performance  Fast "Screening Methods" to assess reliability and durability  Modelling of nano-related failure mechanisms  Fast standardized test methods for nano fabrication  Identification of "Nano Key Control Characteristics" for Material and Process SPC  Electronic-grade nano materials specifications  Generic nano material specification  Electronic grade CNT specification
