Research Interests:  RF and microwave circuits including:  microwave and millimeter-wave power amplifiers, spatial power combining and thin film ferroelectric based frequency agile circuits.

Background:  Amir Mortazawi obtained B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the State University of NY, Stony Brook, in 1987, M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, in 1988 and 1990, respectively.

In 1990, he joined the University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL, as an Assistant Professor where he was promoted to Associate Professor in 1995.  In August of 1998, he joined the North Carolina State University as an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering.  In Fall 2001, he joined the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor as an Associate Professor.  Mortazawi is co-chair of IEEE MTT-16 committee Phased Arrays and chair of the IEEE-MTTSTechnical Program Committee on Active and Quasi-Optical Arrays.  He was an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation from 1998-2001.  Mortazawi's research interests include millimeter-wave power combining oscillators and amplifiers, quasi-optical techniques, frequency agile materials and nonlinear analysis of microwave circuits.

Current Research Projects:  Experimental RF and microwave circuits;  microwave and millimeter-wave power amplifiers, spatial power combining and thin film ferroelectric based frequency agile circuits.  Extended resonance Power Amplifiers and Oscillators.  Tunable Low Loss Thin Film BST Varactors for Tunable RF and Microwave applications.
