DESCRIPTION:Rapid progress in materials processing and fabrication has enab
 led a new generation of sophisticated sensors with expanding roles across 
 scientific\, industrial\, and consumer sectors. Sensors—devices that tra
 nslate physical quantities such as temperature\, force\, and composition\n
 into measurable electrical signals—now underpin critical decision-making
  systems. With the global sensor market exceeding $170 billion in 2019 and
  projected to grow at a CAGR of 10% through 2026\, the demand for accurate
 \, wireless\, and robust sensing platforms continues to rise.\nMicrowave s
 ensors have gained particular attention due to their straightforward fabri
 cation\, compatibility with CMOS technologies\, and ability to perform non
 -contact interrogation. These attributes make them strong candidates for p
 ortable and integrated sensing systems capable of\nreal-time monitoring. A
 dvancements such as liquid-metal-based tunability\, chemically functionali
 zed surfaces for enhanced selectivity\, and electromagnetic loss-compensat
 ion techniques have significantly improved the precision and capability of
  microwave sensing devices. Recent\ndevelopments also integrate these sens
 ors directly with antenna structures\, enabling fully wireless remote-sens
 ing operation. This talk will introduce the fundamentals behind microwave 
 sensing\, review key technological innovations\, and highlight how these a
 dvances are enabling powerful new approaches for remote and contactless de
 tection.\n\nSpeaker(s): Prof. Mohammad  Zarifi\, \n\nVirtual: https://even
