Andy Schramka

Andy Schramka grew up in LaGrange, Illinois, and received his B.S. degree in Engineering Physics from the University of Oklahoma in May 2022. While at Oklahoma, he studied the properties of 3D printed dielectric microspheres. His current work at Purdue University focuses on infrared imaging and...

MOVING PLATES CREATE NEGATIVE-FREQUENCY PHOTONIC RESONANCE

When in relative motion, plates of a Fabry-Perot interferometer generate a unique resonance with negative frequency if separated by a gap of critical size. We commonly encounter the idea of negative frequencies while analyzing electromagnetic waves and signals, which are often helpful as a...

NEW ANTENNA TECH TO EQUIP CERAMIC COATINGS WITH HEAT RADIATION CONTROL

The gas turbines powering aircraft engines rely on ceramic coatings that ensure structural stability at high temperatures. But these coatings don’t control heat radiation, limiting the performance of the engine. Researchers at Purdue University have engineered ceramic “nanotubes” that behave as...

Single Photon Driven Quantum Phase Transition

The temporal dynamics of large quantum systems perturbed weakly by a single excitation can give rise to unique phenomena at the quantum phase boundaries. Here, we develop a time-dependent model to study the temporal dynamics of a single photon interacting with a defect within a large system of...

Latest paper in Nature

Our recent work on 'Heat-assisted detection and ranging' has been published in Nature. We discuss how Machine perception uses advanced sensors to collect information about the surrounding scene for situational awareness . State-of-the-art machine perception using active sonar, radar and LiDAR to...
