Report summary

The Ohio State University Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2021-2023 reads as a 37-PI network with 19 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Engineering as the leading field (48% of slots across 32 PIs; 32 labels), Electrical and Electronic Engineering as the leading subfield (25% of slots across 23 PIs; 23 labels), and GaN-based semiconductor devices and materials as the leading topic (5% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels). Overall the pattern is balanced: there is enough structure to identify active groups, while the field mix still leaves room for multiple research identities. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Hongping Zhao (22.3 weighted works; Ga2O3 and related materials, ZnO doping and properties). The strongest pairings are Kubilay Sertel and Niru K. Nahar (11 shared works, weight 6). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 15 internal connections, weight 22.2, around Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Condensed Matter Physics, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, led by Hongping Zhao, Shamsul Arafin, Sanjay Krishna.
