Reza Abdolvand
received
his B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from Sharif University
of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 1999 and 2001 respectively. In 2002, he
joined the Integrated MEMS group at Georgia Institute of Technology, where
he received his Ph.D. in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering
(2007). His research interests are in the areas of design and fabrication of
resonant MEMS devices for sensors and RF applications, integrated
microsystems and piezoelectric micromachining technologies. He is the author
of more than 20 technical articles and three patents. |

Nazanin Rahnavard received her B.S. and M.S.
degrees in electrical engineering from Sharif University of Technology,
Tehran, Iran, in 1999 and 2001, respectively. She then joined the Georgia
Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, in 2002, where she received her Ph.D.
degree in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2007. Her
research interests lie in the area of telecommunications with a focus on
error-control coding, wireless ad-hoc and sensor networks, and cognitive
radio. Nazanin received the outstanding research award from the Center for
Signal and Image Processing at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Spring
2007. |

Daryoosh Vashaee joined OSU in 2007 after a
postdoctoral research on nano energy materials at MIT. He received his Ph.D.
on nanoscale charge and energy transport in electrical engineering from the
University of California at Santa Cruz (UCSC) in 2004. Prior to UCSC, he
earned his BS and MS both in electrical engineering from Sharif and
Amirkabir University of Technology, Tehran in 1993 and 1995 respectively.
After three years of experience working on RF Engineering, Daryoosh joined
UC-Santa Barbara and worked on the fabrication and processing of thin film
thermoelectric devices. His research interests are on theoretical and
experimental investigation of energy materials and devices, nano and
micro-scale charge and energy transport, thermoelectric/thermionic energy
conversion, and integrated micro-refrigeration. |
