DESCRIPTION:Lend us your senses for Sensing in the 21st Century. This onlin
 e series comprises some of the most distinguished lecturers in one of the 
 widest technology spectrums in Society. We encourage all of your senses to
  join! In IEEE we might agree with Kant when he states “All our knowledg
 e begins with the senses…”!\n\nRadislav A. Potyrailo is a Senior Princ
 ipal Scientist at GE Vernova Advanced Research. He received an Optoelectro
 nics degree from Kyiv Polytechnic Institute (1985) and a PhD in Analytical
  Chemistry from Indiana University\, Bloomington\, IN (1998). He will pres
 ent &quot;Next Generation of Gas Sensors: Anticipated and Unanticipated Advanta
 ges Over Last-Century Designs Summary&quot;.\n\nTime/Date 12th December at 18.0
 0 GMT. (13.00 EST)\n\nGuest Lecture focus:\n\nAbstract\n\nIt is convention
 ally expected that the performance of existing gas sensors may degrade in 
 the field compared to laboratory conditions because (i) a sensor may lose 
 its accuracy in the presence of chemical interferences and (ii) variations
  of ambient conditions over time may induce sensor-response fluctuations (
 i.e.\, drift). Breaking this status quo in poor sensor performance require
 s understanding the origins of design principles of existing sensors and b
 ringing new principles to sensor designs. Existing gas sensors are single 
 output (e.g.\, resistance\, electrical current\, work function\, light int
 ensity) sensors\, also known as zero-order sensors. Any zero-order sensor 
 is undesirably affected by variable chemical background and sensor drift t
 hat cannot be distinguished from the response to an analyte. In this lectu
 re\, we will demonstrate that to address these limitations\, multivariable
  gas sensors are emerging as the next generation reliable analytical devic
 es. Multivariable gas sensors (also known as intelligent sensors\, multipa
 rameter sensors\, high-order sensors\, and virtual sensor arrays) are indi
 vidual sensors that are designed with several independent responses and op
 erate as the first-order analytical instruments. We will present results f
 rom our and other research teams that demonstrate three-dimensional\, four
 -dimensional\, and even five-dimensional dispersion of individual sensors\
 , differentiation of complex odours and closely related volatiles\, and qu
 antification of analytes in mixtures. Next\, we will discuss recent report
 ed methodologies to improve stability of multivariable sensors. Design pri
 nciples of electrical and photonic types of first-order sensors open oppor
 tunities for diverse emerging monitoring applications that cannot afford r
 elatively high electrical power demands\, relatively high instrument acqui
 sition cost\, and frequent periodic maintenance\, typical of traditional a
 nalytical instruments.\n\nCo-Hosts:\n\nThe UK and Ireland Sensors Council
