The Teraphysics Team
Dr. Gerald T. Mearini, Ph.D.
President, Founder
Dr. Mearini received a Bachelor of Science degree from The Ohio State University in 1986 and a Master of Science in 1988 from Case Western Reserve University. In 1991 Dr. Mearini received a PhD. in experimental physics from Case Western Reserve University specializing in thin film deposition, mechanical properties of thin films and applied surface physics under Professor R.W. Hoffman.
From 1991 - 95, Mearini pioneered very high secondary electron emission and field emission from chemical vapor deposited (CVD) diamond films for space electronic applications as a National Research Council fellow in the Space Communications Division of NASA Lewis Research Center. This led to national recognition in the "diamond" community and the founding of General Vacuum in 1994 (now GENVAC Aerospace) and ultimately Teraphysics Corporation in 2004.
Dr. James A. Dayton, Jr., Ph.D.
Chief Technology Officer
Dr. James A. Dayton, Jr. has been a pioneer in the application of efficiency enhancement, computer aided design, and micro fabrication technology to the development of vacuum electron devices operating at mm and sub mm wavelengths. Dr. Dayton received the BS in EE from Illinois Institute of Technology in 1959, the MS in EE in from the University of Iowa in 1960 and the PhD in EE from the University of Illinois in 1965. He is presently the Chief Technology Officer and co-owner of Teraphysics Corp. He also contributes his time pro bono to various IEEE activities, and serves as a consultant to a variety of clients.
Lou Fisi
Chairman, CEO
Mr. Fisi received his BSBA from the University of Akron in 1957 and received his executive MBA from the University of Indiana.
Following two years of service in the military, Mr. Fisi was employed by the international accounting firm currently known as Ernst & Young ultimately serving as an audit client executive until 1976. He was then employed with the Smithers Company, an international industrial manufacturer, as CFO and then COO from 1976 to 1985. In 1985 Mr. Fisi was a founding member of Advanced Lighting Technologies, Inc. (ADLT), and served as its CFO, executive vice president, and as a director from 1985 until his retirement in 2000. ADLT became a public company in 1995 and raised over $275 million in the public markets through 2000.
The Spectrum
Over 400 years, many technologies have been created based on the commercial exploitation of the electromagnetic spectrum.
From radio to MRI, discoveries made to effectively harness untapped bands have led to inventions that are central to our daily life.
The Terahertz Gap
This scientifically rich band of frequencies within the electromagnetic spectrum has been virtually devoid of commercial activity due to the difficulty in generating sufficient power.
Typical Terahertz sources are too large, and smaller sources too weak to have any commercial use.
A New Platform
See through clothing, bandages, and packaging materials? Data speeds at 1Tb/sec?
The properties of THz light enable beakthrough technologies.
Endless Possibilities
Discover where THz light will be used across many industries, and why new innovations are limited only by our imagination.
Updates
As of two weeks ago we fully understand all of our magnet inconsistencies and are testing several good match-candidates this week
