Matt Dwyer received his B.Eng. degree in Electrical Engineering (Honours I) from the University of Queensland, Australia in 2009, including exchange studies at the Technical University of Denmark and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2011 and 2017.
His research interests lie in the design, simulation, and fabrication of nonlinear transmission line (NLTL) monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs). He has designed faster and higher voltage gallium arsenide (GaAs) Schottky diode varactors to enable the generation of sub-picosecond voltage waveforms. He has also developed cleanroom fabrication processes to enable MMICs with reduced parasitics and losses. This cleanroom experience has also led to the development of many tools to support manual wafer and piece processing.
