HÃ¥kan Pettersson
Professor of Physics specialising in Semiconductor
Physics, Information Technology
Halmstad University
Sweden
Biography
Håkan Pettersson was born in Malmö in 1962. Following his Master of Science degree in Applied Physics at Lund University, he studied for a PhD at the Department of Solid State Physics. Following his doctoral defence he worked as a research assistant in the same department. He was employed in 1999 as senior lecturer at Halmstad University.
Research Interest
His research interest is about physical characteristics of semi-conductors with dimensions at the nanometer scale. Semi-conductors are materials which all electronic components such as transistors and integrated circuits are made up of. Semiconductors are consequently at the heart of all modern information technology.
