Polge ProfessorNorth Carolina State UniversityRaleigh\, NC \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nData-Rich Self-Driving Laboratories for Accelerated Materials and Molecular Discovery\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe discovery and development of new molecules and materials remain constrained by slow\, labor-intensive experimental workflows that are poorly matched to the complexity of modern chemical design spaces. This challenge is especially important in colloidal nanomaterials and catalytic systems\, where composition\, synthesis sequence\, reaction environment\, and reactor history collectively determine performance. To address these limitations\, we are developing a data-rich self-driving laboratory (SDL) ecosystem that integrates reaction and reactor engineering\, robotic experimentation\, high-throughput synthesis\, in-situ multi-modal characterization\, and artificial intelligence-guided decision-making to autonomously explore complex chemical spaces. Rather than simply automating experiments\, these systems continuously learn from evolving datasets and adapt their experimental strategies under uncertainty. \n\n\n\nIn this talk\, I will highlight our group’s recent advances in autonomous discovery and optimization of colloidal quantum dots\, including metal halide perovskite and II-VI/III-V nanocrystals\, with emphasis on route-encoded synthesis\, sequence-aware learning\, and closed-loop control of optoelectronic properties. I will also discuss autonomous catalysis platforms for accelerated catalyst discovery and process development of specialty and fine chemicals\, where multi-robot SDLs enable efficient exploration of high-dimensional catalyst and reaction condition spaces. These advances establish SDLs as intelligent robotic co-pilots for accelerated molecular and materials discovery\, reducing development timelines from years to weeks while generating reproducible\, information-rich datasets that reveal transferable chemical knowledge.

Lien\, Northrop Grumman DESCRIPTION:Radiative Thermal Control of Spacecraft using Thermochromic Infrared Materials\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: Thermochromic infrared surfaces have temperature-dependent emissivity spectra that enable radiators to respond to changes in the thermal environment. Spacecraft can leverage this unique behavior for autoregulating thermal control\, where thermochromic surfaces are designed to passively transition between a high thermal emissivity (to radiate heat when hot) and a low thermal emissivity (to retain heat when cold). In this talk\, we introduce the materials\, methods\, and analyses of Variable Emissivity Materials (VEMs) using thermal objectives\, where spectral infrared engineering is used to achieve passive control over temperature and heat flux. We show how the models and materials are validated calorimetrically and describe a novel set of thermo-optic characteristics used in both the design and system modeling of VEMs. Finally\, we present an optimization perspective for further development of VEMs for thermal control. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBio: Dr. Max R. Lien is a research scientist focused on developing optical materials and photonics for national security applications. He earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2019\, followed by a Master of Science in 2021 and a Doctor of Philosophy in 2023 from the University of Southern California\, all in electrical engineering. Currently\, Dr. Lien is a Principal Research Scientist in the basic research laboratories at Northrop Grumman in Redondo Beach\, California\, where he oversees a portfolio of advanced material development and leads research collaborations with academic partners. Previously\, he was a Visiting Technologist at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory working on mid-infrared optics for compact hyperspectral imagers.

The option uses 20 of the elective credits within the 120-credit Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering BS degree program to focus on the science\, tools\, and practices associated with either semiconductor engineering or machine learning and data science. \n\n\n\nAll undergraduate students are welcome as Assistant Teaching Professor Eduardo Arvelo\, Assistant Teaching Professor Setareh Behroozi\, and Teaching Faculty Srdjan Milicic discuss the advantages of choosing a named option. This session is a great opportunity to learn about courses in these areas and where this knowledge can take you. \n\n\n\nCome for the insights\, bring your questions\, and stay for the sandwiches! \n\n\n\n\n\nEduardo Arvelo\n\n\n\n\n\nSetareh Behroozi\n\n\n\n\n\nSrdjan Milicic URL:https://engineering.wisc.edu/event/ece-discovery-panel-ece-named-degree-options-semiconductor-engineering-or-machine-learning-data-science/ LOCATION:2317 Engineering Hall\, 1415 Engineering Drive\, Madison\, 53711 CATEGORIES:Electrical & Computer Engineering,Information Session ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://engineering.wisc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/ECE-Discovery-Panel-Series-Named-Degree-Options.avif END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20261015T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20261015T170000 DTSTAMP:20260805T194644Z CREATED:20260805T194641Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260805T194644Z UID:10001540-1792080000-1792083600@engineering.wisc.edu SUMMARY:ME 903 Graduate Seminar: Adam Clare DESCRIPTION:The ME 903: Graduate Student Lecture Series features campus and visiting speakers who present on a variety of research topics in the field of mechanical engineering. Professor Adam Clare is a professor at The University of British Columbia.
