Dr. Benjamin Lacroix
Contact Information Mailing Address: Benjamin Lacroix received the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Telecommunications Engineering from the University of Limoges, France, in 2008. As a Ph.D. student with the XLIM Research Institute, he developed fast miniature RF MEMS switched capacitors and high-speed reconfigurable low-loss DMTL (Distributed MEMS Transmission Lines) phase shifters. He joined the MiRCTech research group, the Georgia Institute of Technology, in December 2008, as a post-doctoral fellow. His current research is focused on reconfigurable microwave filters using ferroelectric BST capacitors. He also works on RF MEMS tunable devices and reliability of RF MEMS.
