Saturday, March 31, 2007
12:00 AM
170 & 182 Dennison Building

Speaker: Cagliyan Kurdak, Associate Professor (U-M Physics)

Unlike metals, the electrical properties of semiconductors are dominated by the impurities or the dirt in them. Thus, the emergence of semiconductors as a material of choice for the electronics industry was most surprising. This lecture will explore the remarkable scientific breakthroughs in semiconductors that made the growth of the electronics industry possible.

Detailed Information
