Richard W. Ziolkowski is an American electrical engineer and academician, who was the president of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (2005), and a former vice president of this same society (2004). In 2006, he became an OSA Fellow. He is also an IEEE Fellow. He was born on November 22, 1952, in Warsaw, New York.[1]

Career

[edit]

Ziolkowski has a dual appointment at the University of Arizona. He is a professor of electrical and computer engineering, and a professor of the optical sciences. He has been a full professor of electrical and computer engineering since 1996. Has been a professor of optical sciences since 2006. In 1990, he began at the University of Arizona as an associate professor in the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. During his time at this university he was awarded the Kenneth Von Behren Chaired Professor (2003–2005) and is currently the Litton Industries John M. Leonis Distinguished Professor.[1][2][3]

Before his first position at the University of Arizona, he was employed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory from 1981 to 1990.[2][3][4]

2010-present

[edit]

In 2012, he was awarded a Honorary Doctorate from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), in recognition of “outstanding and seminal contributions to metamaterial-inspired antennas.” The ceremony was attended by Queen Margrethe II of Denmark and the US Ambassador to Denmark, Laurie S. Fulton.[5][6]

From 2014 to 2015, Ziolkowski was the Fulbright Distinguished Chair in Advanced Science and Technology for the Australian Defense Science and Technology Organization, where he conducted research on metamaterial-engineered structures and how these structures can be used to control scattering and absorption of electromagnetic and acoustic waves.[7][8]

As of 2016, Ziolkowski is serving as a distinguished professor at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), in Sydney, Australia, where he is continuing his metamaterials research.[9][10]

Education and training

[edit]

At Brown University, in 1974, Richard Ziolkowski earned an Sc.B degree in physics, magna cum laude with honors. He then attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. There he received both his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in physics, in 1975 and 1980, respectively. While earning his graduate degrees, Ziolkowski was also a Graduate Teaching Assistant (1974–1977) and then Graduate Research Assistant (1975–1976).[2][3][4] During his doctoral studies, he was supervised by Georges A. Deschamps.[11]

Society memberships

[edit]

His academic and research achievement, can be reflected by his membership in the engineering honor society Tau Beta Pi, the honor society of research scientists and engineers Sigma Xi, and the multidisciplinary, academic, honor society Phi Kappa Phi.

Richard Ziolkowski is also a current member of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society, the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society, and the American Physical Society.

Concurrently he is also a member of United States segment of International Union of Radio Science (URSI). Regarding URSI, Ziolkowski's membership is more specifically - commission B of URSI, which focuses on fields, waves, electromagnetic theory, and their applications - and commission D of URSI, which focuses on electronics and photonics.[2][3][12]

He is also a current member of the Optical Society of America, and the Acoustical Society of America.

Current areas of research

[edit]

Among other research areas, his research covers metamaterial-engineered antennas This includes configurations and combinations of single-negative metamaterials, double-negative metamaterials, and naturally occurring materials. The study of these materials pertains to how these may affect scatterers, radiators, fields, resonators, gain, and further miniaturization. He has authored and co-authored over 30 papers (2005–2010) related to this area.[18]

His inquiries also cover fundamental research in metamaterials by studying how the properties of these materials, and their use, may affect various electromagnetic devices.[19]
