GTRI’s Graduate Student Research Fellowship Program provides funding for seven new projects, including research on reconfigurable metasurfaces for high-power microwave systems. Led by graduate researcher Walter Disharoon, accompanied by ECE Professor Nima Ghalichechian and Dr. Joshua Kovitz, chief scientist of the electromagnetics division at GTRI, the project aims to develop versatile metasurfaces using vanadium dioxide (VO2) to manipulate electromagnetic waves. The team will focus on designing, fabricating, and characterizing the metasurfaces to enhance their functionality and defense capabilities. Congratulations Walter!
