IEEE APS is organizing the 11thAnnual Student Design Competition this year in Montreal. The topic for this year is “Radar applications in everyday life”. Out of 30 submissions, only 6 teams have been selected as finalists in the competition. KAUST IMPACT Lab team, in collaboration with UESTC, has qualified for the finals.
Stretchy, see-through, silver nanowire sheet combines optical transparency with excellent electrical conductivity.
Muhammad Akram Karimi, a fourth-year Ph.D. student working in the Integrated Microwaves Packaging Antennas & Circuits Technology(IMPACT) Lab headed by Prof. Atif Shamim in CEMSE division, recently won the Three Minute Thesis(3MT) Competition held during the IEEE MTT International Microwave Symposium (IMS2019) in Boston, US.
Masters student of IMPACT Lab, Haoran Zhang has successfully defended his thesis. His thesis is entitled "Gain Enhancement Techniques for mm-wave On-chip Antenna on Lossy CMOS Platform".
Muhammad Akram Karimi describes himself as an inquisitive-minded researcher who loves to solve industrial challenges through science and technology. Karimi is a third year Ph.D. student working in the Integrated Microwaves Packaging Antennas & Circuits Technology (IMPACT) Lab under the supervision of Professor Atif Shamim. His current research focus is on the design of low-cost and printed microwave sensors for various industrial applications, with a prime focus on the oil industry.
