SUMMARY:Optical Sampling Thermoreflectance for 3D Heterogeneous Integration
DESCRIPTION:Th[]e transition to 3D heterogeneous integration has fundamentally changed the thermal characterization problem. Buried heat sources\, anisotropic thin-film materials\, through-silicon vias\, and multilayer stacked structures require measurement techniques with sub-micron spatial resolution\, depth sensitivity\, and a temporal range — capabilities that infrared thermography and Raman spectroscopy cannot reliably deliver at this level of structural complexity. This session presents optical sampling thermoreflectance as a practical\, commercially available solution\, with real measurement data from a university lab and an industrial FA environment.\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/551389

SUMMARY:Advancing Clean Energy: Ontario's Darlington New Nuclear Project
DESCRIPTION:Ontario Power Generation’s Darlington New Nuclear Project (DNNP) is at the forefront of deploying Small Modular Reactor (SMR) technology in Canada\, anchored by the GE Vernova Hitachi BWRX-300. As North America’s first commercial\, grid-scale SMR\, DNNP plans up to four units totaling 1\,200 MW. The project introduces advanced safety features\, including natural circulation cooling\, integral isolation valves\, and passive heat removal\, while supporting thousands of jobs and boosting Ontario’s economy. A collaboration between OPG\, GE Vernova Hitachi\, AtkinsRéalis\, and Aecon-Kiewit\, DNNP strengthens Ontario’s clean energy leadership and sets a model for SMR deployment globally. With construction underway\, DNNP will help meet rising electricity demand\, advance electrification\, and deliver reliable\, carbon-free power\, showcasing nuclear innovation’s vital role in climate action and economic growth.\nSpeaker: Michael Takla\, Ontario Power Generation\nEvent Moderator: Dr. Maike Luiken\, PhD\, SMIEEE\, IEEE-HKN\, FEIC\, FCAE\, is managing director\, R&D\, at a start-up company\, Carbovate Development\, and Adjunct Research Professor\, Western University\, Canada.\nSpeaker(s): Michael Takla\, Maike Luiken\nAgenda:\nWe were given written permission to rebroadcast the Canadian earlier program which will be on April 1 at 9:00am.\nThe SCV Section Life Members Affinity Group program will be at the more convenient time on Apr 15\, 2026 at 07:00 PM Pacific Time\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/547687
