(18 June 2009) Dr. Seth Hubbard Approved as Graduate Program Faculty for CIS

Please join me in welcoming and congratulating Dr. Seth Hubbard who has been approved as a Graduate Program Faculty member in Imaging Science in CIS!

Seth is a professor in Physics as well as a participant in the Microsystems PhD program. He brings to us his very exciting research in the area of applications of nanostructures in both photovotaics and sensory systems:

RESEARCH AND TEACHING EXPERTISE

* Epitaxial Crystal Growth by Metalorganic Chemial Vapor Deposition

* Semiconductor Device Design and Fabrication

* Thin-Film Characterization Techniques

* MOCVD System Design

PRINCIPLE RESEARCH

* Nano-structures (quantum wires/dots) for enhanced efficiency photovoltaic cells.

* Growth of semiconductor nanostructures using MOCVD growth techniques

* Novel Approaches to Power Conversion (alphavoltaics, thin-film III-Vs)

* Wide-bandgap nanostructured gas sensors

* Nanostructured GaN using wet chemical etching
