Modelling-Based Characterization of Materials for Application in 5G and Energy Sectors

The talk explores synergies between four pillars:

– the science of electromagnetic (EM) modeling,
– computer multiphysics simulations of EM wave interactions with materials,
– modelling-based design of applicators for materials processing and characterization,
– joint application of computer modeling and material measurements in emerging technologies and green energy sectors.

The Speaker’s background and research following the above loop are summarised in the Speaker’s biography. The results of her doctoral studies have been amalgamated in QuickWave conformal FDTD simulator, which continuously develops at QWED company co-founded and currently led by the Speaker. The software assists, on the one hand, in the design of energy-efficient microwave applicators for high-quality heating and microwavable food packages, and on the other hand, in the development of high-precision methods and test-fixtures for the characterization of dielectric and conductive materials. Examples highlighted in the talk include:

– Electromagnetic simulations and design of antennas, for space research (at NRAO and the ALMA project) and for 5G (with new functionalities dedicated to steerable antenna arrays and multi-beam multi-band antenna systems, taking into account variable material parameters).
– Multiphysics simulations of domestic ovens loaded with foods, demonstrating the relationships between the FDTD and FEM methods and their different implementations, based on the Speaker’s contributions to the recent Elsevier book, with real-life examples courtesy of Whirlpool Corporation and BSH Haugerate GmbH.
– Modeling-based measurement techniques for 5G materials, with round-robin testing of commercially available techniques (including those from QWED) in the iNEMI 5G initiative.
– Modeling-based imaging techniques for organic semiconductors and graphene anodes, developed by QWED in the European H2020-Framework MMAMA and NanoBat consortia.

We conclude with an outlook to new developments in materials modeling and characterization, conducted within the H2020 NanoBat project and the European Materials Modelling (EMMC) and Characterisation (EMCC) Councils.
