THE WILLIAM CHALMERS LEGACY
MICROWAVE ENGINERING AT CHALMERS
Chancellery member William Chalmers (1748-1811)
had amassed a considerable fortune from the East India
Company’s trade with other countries, in­­­cluding China,
during the latter half of the 18th century. Inspired by fellow
Freemason Pehr Dubb, he left his entire estate to Sahlgrenska Hospital in Gothenburg and for the founding of an
“industrial school for poor children who had learned to read
and write”.
The Freemasons’ Orphanage Trustees in Gothenburg
were assigned the task of administering the will and after
several years of discussions regarding a framework for the
school, the Chalmers School of Arts and Crafts was finally
opened on November 5, 1829. The principal of the school
was Carl Palmstedt.
During the first year the school had three teachers and 10
students. Over the years the school expand­ed and eventually became a university with 2,700 employees and almost
10,000 students.
At Chalmers University of Technology more than a hundred
employees are engaged in research related to microwaves
such as devices, subsystems, systems, and applications
at frequencies ranging from below 1 GHz extending to
beyond 1THz.
External partners in the Gothenburg area employ at least
5000 people in large companies such as Ericsson, RUAG,
Saab Microwave Systems, Emerson Rosemount TankRadar,
Huawei as well as numerous small, startup, companies.
Internationally, there is an increasing number of cooperating
companies see page 22.
In this leaflet we present the departments and the specialized centers, where the work is performed. Some examples
of current research projects are also shown.
Good research work is always based on a solid educational effort. Chalmers offers competitive master and graduate
programs in the field of microwave, photonics and space
engineering.

PhD and Postdoc Programmes
We encourage international graduate students and postdocs to join our research groups. From experience it is
verified to be rewarding for them as well as for us. Half of
the PhD students with us are international. For research
programmes, see this brochure.
PhD courses (also for master students):
–Empirical Modeling of Microwave Devices
Teaches methods for empirical device modeling, i.e. for
development of small and large signal models from
mea­surements and physical understanding of dominant
device mechanisms.
–Microwave Network Analysis, Filtering, and Matching
Teaches advanced methods of analysis and design for
non-distributed and distributed microwave networks.
–Numerical Simulation of Semiconductor Devices
Provides deep theoretical background and broad know ledge about the benefits and different areas of applica tions for physics-based simulation of semiconductor
devices (TCAD).
–High-Speed Transistors
Focus is on the physical understanding of how materials,
processing, and component design affect the electrical
26
characteristics of a semiconductor device. Emphasis is on
the transistors (MESFET, HEMT, BJT, HBT, and MOSFET).
–Nonlinear Microwave Circuits & Simulation Techniques
It covers transient and steady-state methods for compu­ ting the response of nonlinear circuits. The outcome is
thorough understanding of how a modern nonlinear
microwave simulator works.

Master’s Programme in
Wireless, Photonics, and Space Engineering
The programme starts with five compulsory courses.
Through semi-compulsory courses, students can specialize
in wireless, photonics or space engineering, or a combination thereof. To provide opportunities to study related fields,
there is also a wide range of elective courses.
Engineering students specializing in Microwave Engineering
will learn to analyze and design passive and active microwave components and circuits (directional couplers, amplifiers,
antennas, mixers, etc.) for different applications, including
radar and wireless communication systems. A solid physical
understanding is reached through a combination of lectures,
assignments, projects, and laboratory exercises. There is
also a close connection to local and worldwide companies
in microwave engineering.
Happy engineering students

Chalmers University of Technology conducts research and education
in the main engineering sciences as well as in technology related
mathematical and natural sciences. Researchers, graduate engineers
and architects, engineers, technicians and ship’s officers receive their
education at Chalmers. Chalmers has about 10 000 students.
The pursuit of new knowledge and improved technology has characterised Chalmers since its foundation in 1829 in accordance with the
testament of William Chalmers, director of the Swedish East India
Company. Our driving force is inspired by the joy of discovery and the
desire for learning. Behind all that Chalmers accomplishes, the hope
persists for particpating in sustainable development – both nationally
and globally.
Two thirds of the university’s budget relate to research and about
a thousand research projects are conducted on an ongoing basis,
many of them at the forefront of international development. Research
and education are conducted in close contact with industry and
society to meet the demands of the world around.
TWO CAMPUSES – Chalmers has two pleasant university
campuses in Göteborg. Campus Johanneberg close to the city centre
and Campus Lindholmen on the North bank of the river Göta Älv.
MAJOR RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES – Onsala Space
Observatory is a Swedish National Research Facility for advanced
radio astronomy, located 45 kilometers south of Göteborg. The
Observatory is also involved in the APEX projects, a new radio
telescope in Chile. The Nanofabrication Laboratory is a state-of-the-art
cleanroom and a European transnational access facility.
THREE SCIENCE PARKS – Chalmers Science Park houses
research departments of major enterprises. Chalmers Innovation
houses newly-started innovative high technology companies, mainly
emenating from research and study programmes at Chalmers.
At Lindholmen Science Park, a unique and growth-oriented interplay
is being developed within the areas of mobile data communications,
intelligent vehicles and transport systems as well as media and design.
