Biography

Elliott Brown is a Professor of Physics and Electrical Engineering at Wright State University. Previously

he was Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of California, Santa Barbara and Los

Angeles campuses. He has taught courses in solid-state engineering and physics, RF sensors, electromagnetic

fields and waves, antenna engineering, and engineering principles of ultrasound. His primary area of research is

THz technology and science, including new THz photoconductive materials and devices for 1550-nm pump

lasers, ultra-efficient 1550-nm photoconductive switches, quantum-optical (superradiant) emitters, and new

passive components based on surface-structured plasmonics. He discovered the superradiant emitters in dense

arrays of ErAs quantum dots embedded in GaAs, which display a wealth of interesting materials science and

electron transport effects as well, including an insulator-to-metal phase transition.

His second area of research is quantum transport devices, especially n-type resonant-tunneling diodes

(RTDs) which have been an area of expertise since his postdoctoral research in the 1980s. The initial focus was

on demonstrating RTDs as room-temperature THz oscillators, which led to a demonstration up to 712 GHz in

1990 – a record high frequency which has only been been eclipsed in the past 10 years. More recently his focus

has shifted to the development of RTDs in alternative material systems, such as GaN/AlN, for which his team

demonstrated the first room-temperature, reproducible operation in 2016. Besides fast oscillation and switching,

they also discovered strong band-edge electroluminescence from both GaN/AlN and In0.53Ga0.47As/AlAs RTDs,

and have associated the emission with hole generation created by interband tunneling. Hence, they have proven

that RTDs can exhibit two types of tunneling simultaneously – resonant-intraband and non-resonant interband

tunneling, which together produce a useful room-temperature light emission.

A hallmark of Dr. Brown’s career has been the transition of novel materials and devices into useful

instruments and systems. This includes THz photomixing sweep oscillators, photomixing and time-domain

spectrometers, and new pulsed THz imaging systems. These have enabled several new applications such as

identification of absorption signatures in bio- and organic materials (e.g., opioids), and the transmission and

reflection from human tissue. Dr. Brown’s group also works on RF and biomedical sensor systems achieved by

multifunctional integration or by the integration of RF components with devices from other physical domains.

His current biomedical research addresses the use of THz radiation to image the cornea, burns, cancers and other

lesions in human skin using a novel impulse radar developed originally with the UCLA School of Medicine and

more recently Aalto University in Finland.

Before joining UCLA Prof. Brown was a Program Manager at DARPA (Electronics Technology Office)

in Arlington, VA where he helped create and execute programs in advanced RF technology (MAFET Thrust 3),

high-power solid-state electronics (Megawatt), highly-controlled infrared dielectric emissivity (HIDE), and

advanced ultrasonic imaging technology (Sonoelectronics). Prior to DARPA Dr. Brown was an Assistant Group

Leader and Staff Researcher at MIT Lincoln Laboratory in Lexington, MA. While at Lincoln Lab he conducted

original research and development in advanced electromagnetics, ultrafast electronics and optoelectronics, solid-

state device physics, and high-frequency receiver technology. Among his key inventions and discoveries were the

photonic-crystal planar antenna, the low-temperature-grown-GaAs THz photomixer, the resonant-tunneling-diode

relaxation oscillator, normal-incidence absorption in semiconductor quantum wells, and shot-noise suppression

and quantum-transport inductance in resonant-tunneling devices. Each of these has been unique in terms of

device performance or scientific contribution. For example, the photonic-crystal planar antenna was the first RF

application that utilized the three-dimensional nature of the photonic stop bands, and has helped point a new

direction in monolithic integrated circuits whereby the semiconductor substrate can be fabricated to improve

rather than degrade the performance of passive RF components.

Dr. Brown received his Ph.D. and Master’s degrees in Applied Physics in 1985 and 1981, respectively,

from the California Institute of Technology where he conducted research on mm-wave-to-THz mixers made from

semiconductor hot-electron bolometers under magnetic quantization. He received his B.S. degree in Physics from

UCLA in 1979. During the period of 1977 to 1981, he received Fellowships at the Hughes Aircraft Company

where he worked on key components in mm-wave radiometers and high-speed (> 1Gb/s) laser communications

systems for the Space and Communications Group, El Segundo, CA.

Dr. Brown is a Fellow of the IEEE, a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), a Fellow of

the Optical Society of America (OSA), and a lifetime member of the Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society. His

honors include an Achievement Award from the Office of the Secretary of Defense in 1998, Election to

IEEE Fellowship in 2000, Election to APS Fellowship in 2007, a Best Paper Award at IEEE ITHERM 2000

for “Thermomechatronics”, a Best Paper Award at NANO-DDS 2009 for “High-Spectral-Resolution THz

Reflective Imaging Based on a Tandem-Bandpass Filter,” a Best Paper Award at the IEEE Int. Microwave

Symposium 2016, IEEE Trans. THz Science and Technology for “THz sensing of corneal tissue water

content: in vivo sensing and imaging results,” and a best-paper award at IEEE NAECON 2017 for “New

High-Extinction Wire-Grid Polarizers for Polarimetric W-band Radar.” In 2016 he was selected for the

Chair of Excellence, University Carlos-III, Madrid Spain - Santander, which transpired in 2017.
