IEEE EDS Distinguished Lecturer Seminar Title: "Multifunctional Materials for Emerging Technologies" Speaker: Federico Rosei, Centre for Energy, Materials and Telecommunications, Institut National De La Recherche Scientifique (INRS) Abstract This presentation focuses on structure property/relationships in advanced materials, emphasizing multifunctional systems that exhibit multiple functionalities. Such systems are then used as building blocks for the fabrication of various emerging technologies. In particular, nanostructured materials synthesized via the bottom-up approach present an opportunity for future generation low cost manufacturing of devices. We focus in particular on recent developments in solar technologies that aim to address the energy challenge, including third generation photovoltaics, solar hydrogen production, luminescent solar concentrators and other optoelectronic devices. Biographical details Federico Rosei (MSc (1996) and PhD (2001) from the University of Rome "La Sapienza") is Full Professor at the Centre Energie, Materiaux et Telecommunications, Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique, Varennes (QC) Canada, where he served as Director (07/2011-03/2019), currently on leave. He held the Canada Research Chair (Junior) in Nanostructured Organic and Inorganic Materials (2003-2013) and the Canada Research Chair (Senior) in Nanostructured Materials (2016-2023). Since January 2014 he holds the UNESCO Chair in Materials and Technologies for Energy Conversion, Saving and Storage. Since March 2023 he holds the Chair of Industrial Chemistry at the Department of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Trieste. Dr. Rosei's research interests focus on structure/property relationships in nanomaterials and their use as building blocks in emerging technologies. He has worked in partnership with over twenty Canadian R&D companies. He is co-inventor of three patents and has published over 480 articles in prestigious international journals (including Science, Nature Phot., Nature Mater., Nature Chem., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., Adv. Mater.) which have been cited over 24,900 times (H index = 82). He is Fellow of numerous prestigious national and international societies and academies, including: the Royal Society of Canada, the European Academy of Science, the Academia Europaea, the European Academy of Sciences and Arts. He has received several awards and honours, including the Brockhouse Medal (Canadian Association of Physics 2022), the Canadian Light Source - TK Sham Award in Materials Chemistry (CSC 2023), the Spirit of Salam Award (ICTP 2023), a Guggenheim Fellowship in Engineering (2023), Knight of the National Order of Quebec (2023) and the AVS Nanotechnology Recognition Award (2024).

The Vancouver Section of the IEEE promotes the exchange of technical information and awareness of the local engineering community by:
- Hosting evening, half-day, or full-day technical presentations and seminars on topics of current interest
- Organizing tours of local companies, research labs, and industrial sites
- Arranging for local support and participation in engineering conferences and symposia held in Vancouver.
Other important activities include:
- Recognizing local members by nominating them for advancement in IEEE membership grade and/or IEEE technical and service awards,
- Arranging for industry support of projects organized by IEEE student branches and chapters, and,
- Organizing events or activities concerning either technology or public policy for the general public.
The Vancouver Section was established on August 22, 1911. The Section encompasses the geographical area of the province of BC, except for Vancouver Island (which is part of the Victoria Section). The Section currently has about 2200 active members, including 325 students at BCIT, SFU, and UBC. It is the fourth largest Section in Canada.
The Section operates on a fiscal year that runs from May - April of each year. The Annual General Meeting and election of new officers are held on the second Monday of each May. Meetings and social events are generally held from September - April.
The Section's nine active technical chapters represent 15 of the 37 technical societies and councils of IEEE and are listed on the menu bar to the left. Each chapter holds 5-6 technical meetings or tours each year. Some chapters organize a few half or full day seminars, and a distinguished lecture or two.
The Section also has active committees responsible for:
- Advertising
- Awards
- Communications
- Conference Activity
- Continuing Education
- GOLD (Graduates of the Last Decade)
- History
- Membership Development
- Professional Activities
- Publicity
IEEE Continuing education courses are offered online at http://www.ieee.org/web/education/home/index.html
Local courses are also offered at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UBC, the School of Engineering Science at SFU, and at the British Columbia Institute of Technology.
The Section publishes a newsletter, "IEEE CONTACT", 9 times each year (from September - May) that is emailed to members.
