The IEEE Young Professionals (YP) Montreal Section jointly with the IEEE Student branches of Montreal Section organized and led the IEEE Day 2021 celebration in collaboration with the IEEE Montreal section. The event provided the opportunity to the attendees to get more familiar with the IEEE organization through the speech delivered by past members of the IEEE Montreal Section. The event will also cover the activities of the IEEE Student Branches (SBs) along with the events organized by the IEEE YP Montreal Section. On the behalf of all organizers, we would like to invite all students and members to join us in celebrating IEEE Day 2021. Speaker(s): Prof. Dr. Anader Benyamin-Seeyar, Agenda: 19:00-19:10 Opening and welcome by the section chair 19:15-19:45 Talk by Prof. Dr. Anader Benyamin-Seeyar, Concordia University, Dept. of Electr. & Comput.

Both the scientific and the defense communities wish to receive and process information occupying ever-wider portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. This can often create an analog-to-digital conversion “bottleneck”. Analog photonic channelization, linearization, and frequency conversion systems can be designed to alleviate this bottleneck. Moreover, the low loss and dispersion of optical fiber and integrated optical waveguides enable most of the components in a broadband sensing or communication system, including all of the analog-to-digital and digital processing hardware, to be situated many feet or even miles from the antennas or other sensors with almost no performance penalty. The anticipated presentation will highlight the advantages and other features of analog photonic systems (including some specific systems that the author has constructed and tested for the US Department of Defense), and will review and explain multiple techniques for optimizing their performance.

Recent advance in DC electric generators has demonstrated that the new generators are of several advantages over traditional electric generators that are well known to us. In these new generators, DC electric power is converted from mechanical power through either semiconductor junction modification by mechanic impact or dynamic junction by sliding one semiconductor/metal electrode on the other. The short circuit current is determined by the generation rate of electrons and holes at the contacted surfaces, while the open-circuit voltage is determined by the chemical potential difference of the two electrodes. In the talk, I shall review recent advances in the generators and discuss the mechanisms of electron/hole generation and transport in the devices. Advances in fundamental semiconductor physics and perspectives and technical challenges will be highlighted. Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/283533

Abstract: This presentation discusses metamaterials from a popular perspective for a general scientific audience. Metamaterials has the capability of bending waves in new ways scientists could not do before. Going back to the start of this exciting technology 20 years ago I will present examples of possible ground breaking wave applications from radio and light waves to acoustic, sonar, ocean and even seismic waves.

Abstract: The presentation will describe how the concept of electromagnetically soft and hard surfaces and metamaterial horns (metahorns) came about. I will also discuss practical antennas enabled by these EM techniques, as well as future opportunities and challenges in antenna and RF design.
