Professor Herbert Kroemer 2000 Nobel Physics Laureate ECE Department and Materials Department 2205A Engineering Science Building Electrical and Computer Engineering University of California Santa Barbara, CA 93106-9560 Ph: 805 893-3078 Fax: 805 893-7990 E-mail: kroemer@ece.ucsb.edu Bio Parallel to his work on heterostructures, Kroemer pursued the problem of high-field electron transport, especially negative-resistance effects such as the Gunn effect [4], and the crucial enabling role of non-trivial energy band structure in such effects. Since the late 1990s, Kroemer has reverted to purely theoretical work, some of which continues earlier work [8,9,12], some is in newer research areas, like electromagnetic wave propagation in photonic crystals, especially negative-refraction effects, as well as the physics of nanostructures. Professor Kroemer has received numerous national and international honors and awards for his work, most recently-and most notably-the 2000 Nobel Prize in Physics "for developing semiconductor heterostructures used in high-speed- and opto-electronics," (View Ceremonies) and the 2002 IEEE Medal of Honor "for contributions to high-frequency transistors, and hot-electron devices, especially heterostructure devices from heterostructure bipolar transistors to lasers, and their molecular beam epitaxy technology." He holds honorary doctorates from the Technical University of Aachen (Germany; 1985), the University of Lund (Sweden; 1998), and the University of Colorado (USA; 2001). In 2001, he received the Grand Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, the highest award given by the German government. He is a member of both the National Academy of Engineering and the National Academy of Sciences.

The second half of the prize went to Jack S. Kilby, USA "for his part in the invention of the integrated circuit" This video is available in the following formats: Video recorded in 2004. Herb Kroemer tells us that is his family were working class and his parents did not go to high school. His father was a Civil Servant but encouraged him to go to University. Kroemer himself was bored at school! He likes to take ideas to the extreme, pushing them to the limit and exploring his fundamental interests rather than following up applications. Later in his career Kroemer went to work in the USA on transistors but had to wait for the technology to improve before he could develop his ideas. His work on transistors proved to be crucial for mobile phone technology. He is not religious but does not push his own attitude on others. His interests outside of science include gardening and reading.

Conservation of energy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed., and that neither one appears without the other. Thus in closed systems, both mass and energy are conserved separately, just as was understood in pre-relativistic physics. The new feature of relativistic physics is that "matter" particles (such as those constituting atoms) could be converted to non-matter forms of energy, such as light; or kinetic and potential energy (example: heat). However, this conversion does not affect the total mass of systems, since the latter forms of non-matter energy still retain their mass through any such conversion. Today, conservation of “energy” refers to the conservation of the total system energy over time. This energy includes the energy associated with the rest mass of particles and all other forms of energy in the system. In addition, the invariant mass of systems of particles (the mass of the system as seen in its center of mass inertial frame, such as the frame in which it would need to be weighed) is also conserved over time for any single observer, and (unlike the total energy) is the same value for all observers. Therefore, in an isolated system, although matter (particles with rest mass) and "pure energy" (heat and light) can be converted to one another, both the total amount of energy and the total amount of mass of such systems remain constant over time, as seen by any single observer. If energy in any form is allowed to escape such systems (see

With gate-induced electron sheet concentrations on the order 10 cm , they exhibit a pronounced conductivity quantization. The very deep wells (1.35eV) provide excellent electron confinement, and also permit modulation doping up to at least 10 electronscm . Because of the very low effective mass in InAs, heavily doped wells are essentially metals, with Fermi energies around 200meV, and Fermi velocities exceeding 10 cms . Contacted with superconducting electrodes, such structures can act as superconductive weak links.

Close Please copy/paste the following text to properly cite this HowStuffWorks article: Kroemer, Herbert (1928-), a Germanborn American physicist, won a share of the 2000 Nobel Prize in physics for his work on certain kinds of electronic devices. Kroemer shared the prize with the Russian physicist Zhores Ivanovich Alferov and the American electrical engineer Jack Kilby. Kroemer was born in Weimar, Germany, in 1928. He received a Ph.D. degree in theoretical physics in 1952 from the University of Göttingen in what was then West Germany. He worked in a number of research laboratories in West Germany and the United States. The American labs included RCA Laboratories in Princeton, New Jersey, where he worked from 1954 to 1957; and Varian Associates in Palo Alto, California, where he worked from 1959 to 1966. He served as professor of physics at the University of Colorado from 1968 to 1976. In 1976, he became a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of California at Santa Barbara. Kroemer's work involved the use of semiconductor heterostructures in electronic devices. These structures consist of two or more thin layers of different semiconductors. A semiconductor is a material that conducts (carries) electric current better than does an insulator, such as wood or glass, but not as well as a conductor, such as silver or copper. In an electronic device, all the layers of a semiconductor heterostructure act together to perform a single function, such as controlling the flow of electric current.
