EXPERIENCE
1995-
Consultant & Air Force Researach Laboratory Emeritus
1967-95 Chief, Rome Laboratory -
Components Technology Branch
Planned and managed in-house (12 people) and contractual ($2
M) research & development program with universities and industry. Researched
80-psec-laser activated antennas, high-Tc superconductivity, GaAs & InP
Monolithic Circuits to a record of 213GHz, surface acoustic waves (SAW),
& microwave ultrasonics. Components are used in DOD communications and
radar systems as well as TV and cellular phones.
Supervised graduate students, three of whom won the prestigious
Air Force R&D Award.
One used his research on Surface Acoustic Waves (SAW) as
a Ph.D. thesis at the U. of MO.
In 1976, the former AF Cambridge Research Laboratory became
part of the Rome Laboratory.
