Electronics, Photonics & Magnetic Materials

The electronics, Photonics and Magnetic Devices (EPMD) Program supports innovative analysis on novel devices supported the principles of electronics, optics and photonics, optoelectronics, magnetics, opto- and electromechanics, electromagnetics, and related physical phenomena. EPMD’s goal is to advance the frontiers of micro-, Nano- and quantum-based devices operative at intervals the spectrum and conducive to a broad vary of application domains together with data and communications, imaging and sensing, healthcare, internet of Things, energy, infrastructure, and producing. The program encourages research supported emerging technologies for shrinking, integration, and energy potency likewise as novel material-based devices with new functionalities, improved potency, flexibility, tenability, wearability, and increased dependability.

Materials Science May Be the Most Important Technology of the Next Decade

Think of just about any major challenge we will have to face over the next decade and materials are at the center of it. To build a new clean energy future , we need more efficient solar panels, wind turbines and batteries. Manufacturers need new materials to create more advanced products. We also need to replace materials subject to supply disruptions,  like rare earth elements . https://materialsscience.heraldmeetings.com/organizing-committee Traditionally, developing new materials has been a slow, painstaking process. To find the properties they're looking for, researchers would often have to test hundreds--or even thousands--of materials one by one. That made materials research prohibitively expensive for most industries. Yet today, we're in the midst of a materials revolution. Scientists are using powerful simulation techniques, as well as sophisticated  machine learning algorithms, to propel innovation forward at blazing speed and even point the...

Creating a True Materials Revolution

Thomas Edison famously remarked that if he tried 10,000 experiments that failed, he didn't actually consider it a failure, but found 10,000 things that didn't work. That's true, but it's also incredibly tedious, time consuming and expensive. The new methods, however, have the potential to automate those 10,000 failures, which is creating a revolution in materials science. For example, at the  Joint Center for Energy Storage Research (JCESR) , a US government initiative to create the next generation of advanced batteries, the major challenge now is not so much to identify potential battery chemistries, but that the materials to make those chemistries work don't exist yet. Historically, that would have been an insurmountable problem, but not anymore. "Using high performance computing simulations, materials genomes and other techniques that have  been developed over the last decade or so, we can often eliminate as much as 99% of the possibilities...
