The f irst part of the talk will be dedicated to discussing the possibilities en abled by time modulation to implement a wide variety of low-loss nonrecipr ocal microwave components exhibiting fascinating functionalities\, includi ng (i) phased-array antennas that independently control their transmission /reception radiation patterns at the same operation frequency\; (ii) gradi ent metasurfaces able to arbitrarily manipulate beams propagating in free- space\; (iii) bandpass filters that behave as isolators on one direction o f the wave propagation\; and (iv) power dividers and Yagi-Uda planar anten nas\, among other devices. The second part of the talk will focus on the u se of RF microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) for infrared sensing. Speci fically\, I will describe our latest effort to merge RF MEMS devices with ultrathin metasurfaces to detect IR waves with desired wavelengths while p roviding ultralow noise and high responsivity at room temperature. Then\, I will overview our design strategy to improve the device's perform\, stre ssing challenges and opportunities\, and discuss our state-of-art automati zed characterization system able to test hundreds of IR sensors in a short time span. I will conclude by outlining the exciting applications enabled by this promising technology\, with a focus on gas sensing and cancer det ection.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE North Jersey Section\n\nSpeaker(s): J.
