at EU-India Conference

Srinagar, November 06 (Scoop News)-Research initiatives in semiconductor and emerging digital technologies being pursued at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Srinagar were highlighted through invited talks at the EU-India Digital Cooperation Conference 2026, held at South Asian University, New Delhi, on November 2 and 3.

Dr. Sheikh Aamir Ahsan and Dr. Arshid Nisar, faculty members of the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering at NIT Srinagar, delivered the invited talks, presenting their ongoing research in two emerging areas: Power Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology for electric vehicles and AI data centres, and neuromorphic computing using spintronic devices.

The talks were delivered under the framework of INPACE, a Horizon Europe-funded project aimed at strengthening cooperation between the European Union and Indo-Pacific countries in semiconductor and digital technologies.

Dr. Sheikh Aamir Ahsan presented his research on Power GaN technology and compact modelling for applications in electric vehicles and AI data centres, highlighting ongoing research at NIT Srinagar aimed at advancing next-generation power electronics and semiconductor applications.

Dr. Arshid Nisar spoke on neuromorphic computing using spintronic devices, an emerging approach inspired by the functioning of the human brain, with potential applications in developing energy-efficient computing systems. His research is being undertaken with support from the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India, under the DST INSPIRE Faculty Fellowship.

The conference brought together experts, researchers and policymakers from India and the European Union to deliberate on cooperation in semiconductor development and digital technologies.

Padma Shri Prof. Ashok Jhunjhunwala, Institute Professor at IIT Madras, attended the conference as the chief guest. The programme featured invited talks, panel discussions and an interactive working session involving experts from participating countries.
