Material Physics explains the physical properties of the Materials like metals, plastics, wood, glass, ceramics, composites, etc. Material physics is composed of different branches like chemistry, physics, solid mechanics, and solid-state physics. Material Physics is said to be a subset of condensed matter physics and applies its concepts to explain different media. It also explains about the materials like technological interest Electronic, magnetic materials, optical, novel materials and structures, condensed matter physics are some of the current topics in which Material Physics works. The innovative value of an object is explained by Material Physics and also the forming, processing, and finishing technologies are explained by Material Physics.

Dr. Ye Tao seeks to explain the mechanistic links between structure and function, across length scales and systems. Educated as a nanotechnologist and instrumentation expert, he brings the benefits of a multidisciplinary background in engineering and science to problem solving. Tao is a former fellow of The Rowland Institute at Harvard University, and serves as the full-time Director of The MEER: ReflEction Framework. In 2020, Tao founded the MEER:ReflEction Framework after grasping the accelerating and ultimate consequences of the climate crisis on Earth’s delicate web of life. Their Fourfold Mission using glass mirrors: 1. Reflect solar radiation away from Earth to cool the biosphere 2. Redirect solar radiation to harness its potential for enhanced food production and carbon-neutral energy generation 3. Facilitate the biological and accelerate the chemical processes endemic to Earth’s oceans and atmosphere for reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide and methane 4. Establish an open education network for promoting panhuman solidarity and justice and supporting them through relentless innovation There will be time for a robust post-presentation conversation during which attendees may submit questions. Please join us for a thought-provoking presentation by Dr. Ye Tao about the work being done by his team at MEER:ReflEction. He will discuss how mirrors can save the world!
