2D Materials for Next-Generation Electronics: From Low-Power Logic to Monolithic Memory
2D Materials for Next-Generation Electronics: From Low-Power Logic to Monolithic Memory
Silicon has been the dominant material for electronic computing for decades, but it is well-known that Moore’s law is long dead. Therefore, a fervent search for (i) new semiconductors that could directly replace silicon or (ii) new architectures with novel materials/devices added onto silicon or (iii) new physics/state-variables or a combination of above has been the subject of much of the electronic materials and devices research of the past 2 decades. This is not possible without fundamental innovation in new electronic materials and devices. Therefore, I will make the case that novel layered two-dimensional (2D) chalcogenide materials and three-dimensional (3D) nitride materials might present interesting avenues to overcome some of the limitations being faced by Silicon hardware. I will present our work on integration of 2D chalcogenide semiconductors with Silicon to realize low-power tunnelling field effect transistors. In particular I will focus on In-Se based 2D semiconductors for this application and extend discussion on them to phase-pure, epitaxial thin-film growth over wafer scales, at temperatures low-enough to be compatible with back end of line (BEOL) processing in Silicon fabs. I will then discuss memory devices from 2D materials when integrated with emerging wurtzite structure ferroelectric nitride materials namely aluminium scandium nitride (AlScN). First, I will present on Ferroelectric Field Effect Transistors (FEFETs) made from 2D materials when integrated with AlScN and make the case for 2D semiconductors in this application. Next I will introduce our work on Ferroelectric Diode (FeD) devices also based on thin AlScN. I will also present how FeDs provide a unique advantage in compute-in-memory (CIM) architectures for efficient storage, search and hardware implementation of neural networks. Finally, I will present ongoing work and opportunities to extend the application of AlScN ferrodiodes into extreme environments, scaling them and integration with SiC electronics. I will end the talk with a broad perspective on the role of novel materials and heterostructures in semiconductor technologies for electronic computing.

Signal Processing Design for Audio Effects
Signal Processing Design for Audio Effects
[] This presentation describes open-source software and guides we have assembled into a digital audio effects development kit, and our efforts using these resources in our annual FX Hackathon event held at WPI. Audio processes and their uses in musical contexts is a challenging subject area. We have addressed this difficulty by creating an effect development kit including a software-based tool to facilitate rapid effect prototyping and guides for assembling hardware around a microcontroller housed in a guitar pedal stompbox-sized enclosure. With these resources, students need only focus on understanding the specific audio process they wish to implement into an effect and then use these resources to realize the effect in a standalone device. What is the Electric Guitar Innovation Lab (EGIL) @ WPI? Through the Electric Guitar Innovation Lab, WPI students and faculty work together in a variety of interdisciplinary and open-ended projects to develop new innovations related to the electric guitar, including the modification to instruments and components, stompboxes and other effects processors, amplifiers and speaker components, and related inventions and adaptations. We routinely reverse-engineer, 3D model ,3D scan, program and adapt existing parts and tools, and then create tool-pathing operations, fabricate parts, and perform real-world and software-based simulations.

Exploring the Potential of Deep-Learning and Machine-Learning in Dual-Band Antenna Design Keywords Antennas, Dual Band, Computational Modeling, Mathematical Models, Antenna Arrays, Training, Accuracy, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Antenna Design, Dual Band Antennas, AI Antenna, Deep Learning, Antenna Design, Dual Band Antenna, Dual Band Antenna Design, Neural Network, Support Vector Machine, Design Process, Machine Learning Models, Machine Learning Techniques, Design Parameters, Internet Of Things, Reflection Coefficient, Operating Frequency, Regression Problem, Residual Network, Wireless Communication Systems, Internet Of Things Applications, Modern Communication, Antenna Performance, Residual Neural Network, Electromagnetic Simulation, Multiple Outputs, Neurons In Layer, Hidden Layer, Internet Of Things Devices, Res Net Model, Horizontal Stripes, Vertical Stripes, Simulation Technology, Traditional Antenna Abstract This article presents an in-depth exploration of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) for the optimization and design of dual-band antennas in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Dual-band antennas, which are essential for the functionality of current and forthcoming flexible wireless communication systems, face increasing complexity and design challenges as demands and requirements for IoT-connected devices become more challenging. The study demonstrates how artificial intelligence (AI) can streamline the antenna design process, enabling customization for specific frequency ranges or performance characteristics without exhaustive manual tuning. By utilizing ML and DL tools, this research not only enhances the efficiency of the design process but also achieves optimal antenna performance with significant time savings. The integration of AI in antenna design marks a notable advancement over traditional methods, offering a systematic approach to achieving dual-band functionality tailored to modern communication needs. We approached the antenna design as a regression problem, using the reflection coefficient, operating frequency, bandwidth, and voltage standing wave ratio as input parameters. The ML and DL models then are used to predict the corresponding design parameters for the antenna by using 1,000 samples, from which 700 are allocated for training and 300 for testing. This effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated through the successful application of various ML techniques, including Fine Gaussian Support Vector Machines (SVM), as well as Regressor and Residual Neural Networks (ResNet) with different activation functions, to optimize the design of a dual-band T-shaped monopole antenna, thereby substantiating AI's transformative potential in antenna design.

Data-Driven CSI Compression for MIMO Systems and Detecting Feedback Drift
Data-Driven CSI Compression for MIMO Systems and Detecting Feedback Drift
Deep neural networks make it possible to learn key characteristics of data without having to assume mathematically tractable models. This in turn results in an ability to compress data in a model-free way. One of the promising areas for the application of deep learning to the physical layer of communication networks is compression. Hundred-fold compression with a small loss of the CSI in massive MIMO systems has been shown to be both feasible and necessary. However, model-free and data driven compression comes with a downside: the encoding and decoding models need to be trained on a large set of CSI arrays indicative of a wide spectrum of propagation and environmental conditions. As a result, in the early stages of the deployment of deep CSI compression models, it would be necessary to detect if and when users’ channels have drifted significantly away from the distribution of the CSI data on which the deep compression model was trained. In this paper, we present both 1) a technique for detecting harmful channel drift and 2) a lightweight scheme for fine-tuning the deep compression models to adjust to such shifts. Using public-domain synthetic channel data as well as 3GPP-compliant simulated data, we demonstrate the practicality of our proposed deep compression and detection framework. We close with recommendations for a viable implementation of the proposed drift detection by the standards bodies.

Notable initiatives such as the White House's Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of AI, DARPA's Assured Neuro-Symbolic Learning and Reasoning and eXplainable AI (XAI) programs, and the European Union's AI Act, highlight the increasing regulatory focus on AI transparency and responsibility. As 6G networks transition from AI-native to automation-native, the need for explainability and trustworthiness becomes critical, especially in mission-critical and high-stakes applications. Traditional post-hoc explainability methods, which aim to explain AI decisions after they are made, are no longer adequate in complex network environments. Instead, in-hoc explainability or explanation-guided techniques – where explanations guide the learning process itself – is emerging as a crucial approach for establishing trust in AI systems from the ground up. Indeed, integrating explanatory mechanisms directly within AI learning models enables transparent decisions and enhances learning. Furthermore, incorporating neuro-symbolic approaches, which combine neural networks with symbolic reasoning, provides a robust framework to tackle the increasing complexity of 6G networks. By integrating these approaches, AI systems can make more explainable, contextually guided decisions, boosting trust and performance while mitigating risks associated with black-box AI models.

A novel Grid Forming Controls (GFM) model in PSS/E for 100% renewable power grid
A novel Grid Forming Controls (GFM) model in PSS/E for 100% renewable power grid
A technical presentation on the topic 'A novel Grid Forming Controls (GFM) model in PSS/E for 100% renewable grids'. Increased proliferation of Inverter Based Resources (IBRs) and retirement of conventional power generation has resulted in depleted short circuit levels and has raised stability concerns in operating electric grids. Majority of the IBRs today are Grid Following (GFL) meaning they require a voltage and frequency reference for their Phase Locked Loop and 'follow' and latch onto, in order to inject current to the grid. As short circuit levels drop, GFLs suffer from instability raising concerns. Grid-forming inverters (GFMs) are a promising solution in this regard as they behave as voltage sources behind an internal impedance, providing both voltage and frequency regulation. This talk will focus on a novel positive sequence model developed in PSS/E that has several levels of control that works in both grid connected and islanded mode of operation. Alongside an outer layer that generates Voltage and Frequency reference, a V-Q, P-F droop based current controller is utilized eventually form a voltage source interface. Simulation results will be shown that demonstrate stability in 100% renewable grids. During this presentation Tamojit present his work on GFM. We invite all those interested in clean energy and the future of our renewable grid to join us for this insightful session. Agenda: Starts at 7.00PM Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/434368
Sustainable Website Design: Construction and Presentation Methods to Address Climate Change
Sustainable Website Design: Construction and Presentation Methods to Address Climate Change
With climate change already here and its effects all around us, it’s urgent to continue efforts across all industries to reduce CO2 emissions. But what about the information technology sector? The World-Wide Web we depend on enriches our lives in many areas: education, commerce, government, news, communication, and more. However, the infrastructure that enables it uses a lot of electricity — not all of which is generated from renewable resources (hence its CO2 generation.) Combining the fields of computers and the environment, a relatively new Website construction method called “Sustainable Web Design” is gaining awareness. This software-based approach reduces non-renewable energy to lower CO2 emissions so the people of today and tomorrow can benefit from everything that the Web offers. How a Website is constructed and presents its information has real-world effects! A Website can be built to serve smaller files, use less resources, and require less processing power — all of these help reduce non-renewable energy use and associated CO2 emissions. Sustainable Web Design also has side-benefits: a faster Website, better mobile device battery life, higher-placed mobile Google search results, and better accessibility. This presentation will introduce how to determine a Website’s sustainability, identify elements which can slow down a Web page, describe basic sustainable Web design strategies and techniques, offer easy to take actions and examples, present the perspective and advice of a Website Designer/Webmaster who remade his organization’s Website to be sustainable, and list additional resources to follow the latest developments.
