NKUA experience is summarized on direct involvement on the effect of dielectric charging in RF-MEMS capacitive switches since five years. The research group has gained its expertise through the participation in the EC FP6 AMICOM project as well as bilateral research projects with ITC-IRST, Georgia Institute of Technology and its contribution in the DARPA IMPACT project.
Prof. George Papaioannou was born in 1950 in Bucharest, Romania. He received the M.Sc. in Microwaves from the University College London UK and his Ph.D. in semiconductor physics from the Physics Department, University of Athens, in 1976. His thesis was focused on the transport and optoelectronic properties of semi-insulating GaAs. In 1975 he joined the Laboratory of Physics of the Faculty of Applied Sciences of University of Athens and periodically at the Electrical Engineering Dpt. of University College London UK and University of Metz. Since 1997 he holds an associate professor position at the Physics Dpt., Solid State Physics Section of University of Athens. He is conducting a research group on the transport properties, electrical properties and radiation reliability of III-As, III-N and Si semiconductors and semiconductor devices. He is also involved in the dielectric charging and radiation induced charging in RF-MEMS capacitive switches. He has contributed to 98 research publications in refereed journals and has more than 167 conference contributions.
Mrs. Eleni Papandreou received the BS degree in physics from the University of Athens (Greece) in 2005. She is a graduate student and she will obtain her MSc in the field of microelectronics from National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. The discipline of her research field is focused on electrical characterization and modeling the dielectric charging in RF-MEMS capacitive switches and MIM capacitors. She has contributed to 4 research publications in refereed journals and has more than 12 conference contributions.
Mrs. Matroni Koutsoureli received the BS degree in physics from the University of Athens (Greece) in 2006.
