SUMMARY:IEEE EDS Distinguished Lecturer Seminar: Key Considerations for Obtaining High Performance Contact-controlled Thin-film Transistors
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nSource-gated transistors (SGTs) have a relatively long history of development but only recently have mainstream technologies allowed for their effective implementation at scale. This talk is addressed to those interested in efficient analog and mixed signal design with advanced thin-film transistors. They provide a development progression with a forward look toward SGT application to future edge processing of sensor data\, signal conditioning\, and current-mode driving. Crucially\, the concept can be applied in practically any material system. As such\, the talk will present the fundamentals of contact effect engineering and modelling\, design rules for successful SGT implementation\, specifics of performance optimisation in thin-film silicon\, organic\, and oxide semiconductors\, and structural evolutions for additional functionality. Finally\, the next step in the evolution of contact-controlled thin-film transistor\, the multimodal transistor (MMT) will be briefly introduced. \nSpeaker\nProf. Radu A. Sporea\nAssociate Professor in Semiconductor Devices\,\nUniversity of Surrey \nBiography of the Speaker\nProf. Radu Sporea is Associate Professor in Semiconductor Devices at the University of Surrey\, and holds an EPSRC Early Career Fellowship (2021-2026). He was RAEng Research Fellow (2011-2016)\, EPSRC PhD+ Fellow (2010-2011) and PhD researcher (2006 – 2010). Radu studied Computer Systems Engineering at “Politehnica” University\, Bucharest\, and worked as Design Engineer for Catalyst Semiconductor Romania on ultra-low-power CMOS analog circuits. Radu was named EPSRC Rising Star in 2014 and received the I K Brunel Award for Engineering in 2015\, the Vice Chancellor’s award for Early Career Teaching in 2017 and the Tony Jeans Inspirational Teaching distinction in 2018. In 2021\, he was a finalist for Innovator of the Year prize at Surrey. His research focuses on advanced thin-film transistors for improved manufacturability\, large area sensors and sensor arrays for smart environments\, and paper-based electronics and physical-digital interaction. He is chair of the IEEE EDS UK and Ireland chapter. \nOrganiser\nProf. Han Wang\nProfessor\,\nDepartment of Electrical and Electronic Engineering\nThe University of Hong Kong \nCo-organiser\nIEEE EDS Hong Kong Chapter \nAll are welcome! We look forward to seeing you!

SUMMARY:Asymptotic Capacity of 1-Bit MIMO Channels: From Bayesian Statistics to Large-Scale MIMO Communications
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nLarge-scale MIMO systems utilizing low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have emerged as a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution for future wireless communication networks. While extended research has been conducted on signal processing and transceiver design in these systems\, the fundamental Shannon capacity limit remains elusive. In this talk\, we introduce a novel approach that leverages information-theoretic asymptotics from Bayesian statistics to derive the Shannon capacity of such systems. We reveal the critical role of the Fisher information and Jeffreys’ prior in this characterization\, and demonstrate how to apply this method to derive the asymptotic capacity of 1-bit MIMO channels in the Gaussian and the (coherent and non-coherent) fading cases. \nSpeaker\nProf. Sheng Yang\nFull Professor\,\nParis-Saclay University \nBiography of the Speaker\nProf. Sheng Yang received the B.E. degree in electrical engineering from Jiaotong University\, Shanghai\, China\, in 2001\, and both the engineer degree and the M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Telecom Paris\, France\, in 2004\, respectively. In 2007\, he obtained his Ph.D. from Université de Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris VI). From October 2007 to November 2008\, he was with Motorola Research Center in Gif-sur-Yvette\, France\, as a senior staff research engineer. Since December 2008\, he has joined CentraleSupélec\, Paris-Saclay University\, where he is currently a full professor. He has also hold visiting professorships in the University of Hong Kong (2015\, 2016) and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (2023\, 2024). He received the 2015 IEEE ComSoc Young Researcher Award for the Europe\, Middle East\, and Africa Region (EMEA). He was an associate editor of the IEEE transactions on wireless communications from 2015 to 2020. He is currently an associate editor of the IEEE transactions on information theory. \nOrganiser\nProf. Kaibin Huang \nAll are welcome! We look forward to seeing you!
