TC 11 – Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials

IEEE EMC-S TC-11 Charter is focused on engineering and scientific aspects related to nanotechnology and advanced materials for EMC. This includes engineering of new materials, their modeling, manufacturing, characterization, and applications of nanomaterials and nanodevices for EMI mitigation and EMC. This is an interdisciplinary area, combining physics, chemistry, materials science & engineering, electromagnetics, and eventually EMC.

TC-11 deals with modelling, simulation and experimental characterization of nanomaterials and nanodevices for EMC applications. Nanotechnology is the understanding and controlling of matter at atomic and molecular scale, as well as creating artificial materials with nano-size dimensions (3D, 2D, and 1D). Nanotechnology has already found its way into various EMC applications. New materials such as single- and multi-phase composites filled with nanoparticles, nanotube and/or nanofibres have been designed and tested for gaskets and absorbing screens with outstanding performance and capabilities. Innovative nanostructured shields have shown multifunctional properties and higher efficiency than commonly used materials. Nanowires for high speed interconnects and high density integrated systems, could replace copper in the near future, but require adequate modelling and simulation approaches for signal integrity and also to avoid electromagnetic interference problems.

The main mission of TC-11 is to “build bridges” between EMC and Materials Engineers and Scientists, between academia and industry.

Interested in joining TC-11?

If you are an IEEE EMC Society member and would like to join this technical committee, please contact one of the committee officers with your name and IEEE membership number. The committee meets yearly at the IEEE EMC Symposium.

Have ideas?

If you are not an IEEE member but have a comment or suggestion, we would like to hear from you. Please contact an appropriate TC 11 committee officer with your idea.

Upcoming 2026 Symposium

TC 11 Officers are pleased to announce the upcoming IEEE 2026 International Symposium on EMC+SIPI, which will take place in Dallas, Texas, August 3-7, 2026. The Symposium features five full days of innovative sessions, interactive workshops & tutorials, “Ask the Experts” panel discussions, experiments and demonstrations, expansive technical exhibition, and social networking events.
