Curriculum Vitae: Sol Aisenberg, Ph.D
Sol Aisenberg earned a PhD in physics from MIT with minors in Physical Electronics and Electromagnetic Theory. He had graduated Cum Laude from Brooklyn College with a BS in Physics after graduating from Brooklyn Technical High School. He also has held part time appointments as a staff member at MIT in the Physics Department, and the Research Laboratory of Electronics, (RLE). He was also a part time a Lecturer at Harvard Medical School, and a Visiting Research Professor in the Bioengineering Department of Boston University. He was elected as a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi (science), and Pi Mu Epsilon (math) honor societies.
After serving as Senior Scientist at Raytheon Corp, Aisenberg became General Manager, and then President and Principal Investigator of Space Sciences Division of the conglomerate Whittaker Corporation (for 10 years). After arranging the sale of the Division to the conglomerate Gulf+Western he was President of its Applied Science Labs (for 9 years). He then was founder and President of the International Technology Group to work for clients in Sweden and England for many years. He now devises practical inventions and licenses them.
He is an experimental and applied physicist and generalist with experience and results in many disciplines including plasmas, energy, microwaves, instrumentation, and medical programs. One of his major projects is the development, demonstration, and patenting of Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) thin films, which are diamond carbon films without hydrogen content. He also was a principal investigator in the artificial heart program of NIH for a number of years. He also was a principal investigator for a program from the Joslin Diabetes foundation.
Included are years of experience in obtaining and running programs from many government agencies including NASA, NASA Headquarters, NASA Ames, NIH, WPAFB, HAFB, DARPA, ONR, and AFOSR. Many of the programs were renewed for years.
Aisenberg has over 134 publications, presentations, and reports plus a number of invited talks. He has over 23 U.S. patents issued, and many others pending. He has obtained seven IR-100 awards for important new products and an award for research in Helium-Neon Lasers. He was a reviewer for a number of technical journals, and has reviewed proposals for the National Institute of Health and for the National Science Foundation.
Aisenberg is a current or former member of many professional societies including the American Physical Society, Division of Astrophysics, Division of Biological Physics, Division of Material Physics, Topical Group of Gravitation, the APS Vacuum Society, the Materials Research Society, the IEEE, Society of Photo Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), and Association for Research in Vision and Optics (ARVO), and the New York Academy of Sciences. He is listed in various types of Who’s Who directories.
