Radar offers some unique capabilities compared to other sensing phenomenologies. For example, radar can operate at long ranges, during the day and night, and in most weather conditions. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) enables formation of 2D and 3D images of ground scenes for a wide array of military and commercial applications. In this talk, Dr. […]
Wildfire Smoke Impact on Solar PV Systems and Power Grid Stability: Insights from Recent Research Tue, Oct 24, 2023 (10:00 AM - 11:00 AM) 1 hour Session Abstract: In the backdrop of escalating global wildfire incidents, wildfire smoke has emerged as a significant societal challenge, impacting both human health and power grid operations. A noteworthy repercussion […]
October 29th is officially Internet Day. The unofficial holiday commemorates the very first electronic message sent over a network. On October 29, 1969, a UCLA Computer Science Professor and his staff sent the message “LO” over the telephone network to be received at Stanford University. Did You Know… …that it took 20 years after the […]

The event aims to empower researchers, academicians, and students in photonics by imparting valuable insights into the powerful simulation tool Ansys Lumerical. Through this workshop, participants will gain a deeper understanding of Photonics simulation techniques, laying the groundwork for groundbreaking research and innovations in the field of plasmonic devices, sensors, and other photonic devices.
Foundations for advancing wireless networks rely on the exploration of high-frequency bands ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz. FutureG and THz communication technologies enable access to these bands with improved spectral efficiency and bandwidth. However, these trends also present significant challenges for future electronic systems. These are associated with design for higher gain and […]
This seminar will discuss advanced ultrafast optics techniques for probing dynamics of nanostructured mechanical metamaterials, by Prof. Carlos Portela. Mechanical metamaterials across length scales—from nanometers to centimeters—have demonstrated unique mechanical properties enabled by a variety of 3D material morphologies. Significant advances in our understanding of these materials have pointed to structure-property relations that lead to […]
Where did we come from? How did the universe begin? Are we Alone? These are basic questions that people have been asking for years. The iconic Hubble Space Telescope has helped us better understand the universe around us. Even before Hubble was launched, scientists were asking, what’s next? More than 25 years ago, science teams […]
