Anton Chernenko, MSc., Radiance co-chief optical engineer, is responsible for overseeing and managing the end-to-end optical engineering initiatives of the Company. Chernenko is a results oriented and performance driven engineer, having had demonstrated industry experience in Fortune 100 companies, most notably with General Dynamics as an
opto-mechanical engineer.
Chernenko is an accomplished creative engineer, while a research assistant at UNC Charlotte, Chernenko derived and implemented an innovative photolithography method for the production of multi-phase level diffractive optics. He also researched the optical properties of infrared windows with anti-reflective structures. Additionally, while at the University of Tennessee Space Institute, Chernenko was a key reseach assistant, and executed experimental work on a single molecule detection in a nanochannel, which helped develop a novel method for measuring the diffusive coefficient.
Optical engineering has always fascinated Chernenko due to his passion for “light” and how people can “sense” the world and universe by the means of vision.
Chernenko holds a Master's degree in Optical Science from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC), specializing in Optical Engineering, and was elected a member of the UNCC SPIE chapter. Chernenko received his Bachelor of Science degree in Physics from Middle Tennessee State University in 2014.
