Electronic Materials and Applications 2023

Event recap

Electronic Materials & Applications (EMA) 2023 — Orlando

We continued our annual ACerS presence, contributing to the 5G/6G Communications Symposia and engaging with the global ceramics community.

Organizer

ACerS — The American Ceramic Society (est. 1898; 11k+ members, 70+ countries)

City

Orlando, Florida — in-person after two remote editions

Our track

5G/6G Communications (Symposia led by Dr. Nathan Orloff, NIST)

Symposium S21 — Keynote

KeynoteMaterials · Devices · 6G

Evaluation and Extensions of Resonator Techniques for the Characterization of Ceramics & Energy Materials Relevant to 6G Applications

Speaker: Dr. Małgorzata Celuch (QWED President)

The keynote covered temperature-dependent characterisation of ULTCCs (ULTCC6G_EPac), surface imaging for energy materials (H2020 NanoBat & M-ERA.NET I4BAGS), and round-robin outcomes from the iNEMI 5G initiative.

Industry panel

PanelistAfternoon session

Bridging Materials Science and High-Frequency Engineering

Dr. Celuch served as a panelist, emphasising how European Horizon and ERA.NET projects help connect labs and industry. The panel was coordinated by Lucas Enright and featured Michael Hill (Skyworks) and Charles Hill (3M).

Community & project highlights

ACerS community

We engaged with the 11k+ member network spanning research and manufacturing.

iNEMI 5G

Complementary talks by L. Enright (NIST), S. Phommakesone (Keysight), and C. Hill (3M) broadened the SRM and round-robin narrative.

QWED projects

Updates from ULTCC6G_EPac, I4BAGS, and NanoBat showcased reproducible, application-driven characterisation.

Key takeaways

Back to in-person

Orlando brought renewed energy and interaction.

Traceability matters

Round-robins and SRMs underpin 5G/6G materials advances.

Cross-sector bridges

Panels and symposia aligned materials science with RF engineering needs.
