Research Scientist

The Wave Transport in Complex Systems group at the Physics Department of Wesleyan University has a Research Scientist position available. Under the direction of Dr. Tsampikos Kottos, the Research Scientist will be working on the research effort "Enhanced Radiated Power via Engineering Eigenbasis Collapse" funded by the DoE. The project aims to design and implement: (a) Enhanced CW and pulsed emission from resonant-EPD-supporting, linear, nonlinear, and time-modulated RF circuits, and frequency convertors, which surpass the traditional Purcell effect; (b) Unidirectional, impurity-tolerant, low-noise microwave amplifiers and masers based on non-resonant EPDs associated with degeneracies of Bloch-modes of non-reciprocal periodic media; (c) Inverse-designed 3D printable compact beam combiners for converting partially coherent radiation out of basic EPD- units into a high-power collimated beam. Responsibilities include: Supervise graduate and undergraduate students Manuscript preparation and editing and conference presentations. Assisting in grant preparation and grant applications Other duties as assigned This is an on-campus position and the position is approved for two years with the potential to extend another year.
