The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) to develop a novel manufacturing process for piezoceramics. High-throughput experimentation and machine learning would be applied to the manufacturing process in order to rapidly inform process changes (dynamic process control). These two techniques would be applied to manufacturing via a process line (i.e. a production equipment line) that PARC would develop and test through the production of piezoceramic films.
