Emeriti Faculty

He co-authored more than 200 publications on transport and terahertz excitations in semiconductor nano-structures, hot-electron dynamics, high temperature superconductivity, magnetism, spin wave logic devices, superionic conductors, metal physics, clathrate inclusion compounds, protein dynamics and complex oxide heterostructures. He holds three patents.

Physics and astronomy education. Co-author of four introductory textbooks and a project on teaching physics using the medium of comic books.

Experimental Neuroscience of Human Brain Organoids. Biofeedback devices for reducing anxiety and chronic pain.

Theories of nonequilibrium phenomena in condensed matter physics.

Explores the physics of superconducting devices, focusing on achieving very low noise and high sensitivity performance. His primary interest at present is to build a quantum computer based on Josephson junction quantum bits.

My research concerns the theory of Soft Condensed Matter systems. Much of our current activities relate to aqueous electrolytes.

Many-body quantum chaos and thermalization.

Research interests include soft condensed matter and complex fluids, e.g., polymers, colloids, liquid crystals, and his current research is focused on developing new fabrication techniques for photonic crystals including colloidal self-assembly and multi-beam interference lithography. He was also involved in plastic transistors on flexible substrates for various applications, including electronic paper. Prof. Wiltzius is not taking on new graduate students, undergrads or postdocs at this time.
