This year’s annual MIT MRL Materials Day Symposium will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2018, in Kresge Auditorium from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The symposium will focus on imaging-enabled nanoscale research on the structure, properties and processing of materials. Immediately following will be the Poster Session in La Sala de Puerto Rico from 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Confirmed speakers to date include MIT faculty members:
- Frances Ross, Materials Science & Engineering, "Imaging and controlling nanoscale crystal growth using electron microscopy”
- James LeBeau, Materials Science & Engineering, “Accelerating the pace of materials characterization at the atomic scale: From machine learning to novel detectors”
- Sylvija Gradečak, Materials Science & Engineering, “An electron enters a bar: Electron microscopy beyond imaging”
- C. Cem Tasan, Materials Science & Engineering, “Nanoscale insights for macroscale solutions: Exploring novel damage-resistance mechanisms in metals"
- Karl Berggren, Electrical Engineering & Computer Science, “Using quantum mechanics to hack the electron microscope”
- David Moncton, MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory Director, TBA
Presentations will describe new tools and methods for atomic-scale structural and chemical characterization of materials, and application of these methods to optimization of processing and properties of materials for a wide range of applications.
