We borrowed this description from their website:
Research includes MMW artificial materials and metamaterials for highly efficient and linear beam-scanning GRIN lens antennas for satcom, MMW 5G and beyond; phase-change materials for fully programmable antennas and distributed circuits; and nonlinear microwave and microwave/magnetic transceivers and sensors for wideband, low-power sensing and communications.
Dr. Jonathan D. Chisum is associate professor of the group and is well published. Read about him and other professors here. He earned his PhD at UC Boulder in 2011.
