ElectroScience Laboratory

The ElectroScience Laboratory (ESL) is a premier university center in Ohio State's College of Engineering devoted to excellent electromagnetic scattering, antennas, propagation, and remote sensing, wireless, signal processing, sensor fusion, THz, and photonics research areas. Established in 1941, ESL is one of the oldest and largest radio frequency (RF) and optics laboratories in the United States. While centering on all aspects of wireless communications and sensing, ESL has become a cross-disciplinary center integrating research in electrical engineering, materials science, mechanical engineering, and bioengineering. ESL employs nearly 170 faculty, researchers and students, and encompasses more than 60,000 square feet of laboratory and workspace, including state-of-the-art measurement and computational facilities.
