SUMMARY:CBE Seminar Series: Milad Abolhasani
DESCRIPTION:Milad Abolhasani | R.J. Polge Professor | North Carolina State University \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.

SUMMARY:ECE Research Seminar Series: Dr. Haibo Huang\, Director - Center of Excellence in Advanced Diagnostics\, General Atomics
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to GA quantum program\n\n\n\nEvent description: \n\n\n\nGeneral Atomics’ quantum program is focused on platform deployment\, with a 3–5-year horizon for establishing operational benefits. In this sense\, we focus on applied research that takes either commercial or demonstration prototypes of technologies and moves them into practical use on aircraft and elsewhere\, rather than on fundamental research. \n\n\n\nWe are particularly interested in PNT-relevant quantum sensing\, and secure and efficient free-space communication technologies\, such as QKD\, Rydberg-atom-based systems\, and SQUID-based RF antennas. So far\, we have avoided topics such as quantum computing hardware because we believe the time horizon is too long\, although the skill sets developed through quantum computing hardware research can be relevant to other areas of quantum research.
