Klaus Bachmann

Emeritus Professor

k_bachmann@ncsu.edu

Research Interests

Novel compound semiconductors heterostructures with applications in optoelectronics, e.g., solar cells, light sources and photodetectors. Advanced methods of heteroepitaxy, e.g., pulsed chemical beam epitaxy and rapid thermal organometallic chemical vapor deposition. Investigations of chemical thermodynamics and kinetics.

Education

>Dr. rer. nat. Chemistry, Freie Universitt, Berlin 1966
Diplom-Chemiker, Freie Universitt, Berlin 1963

Background and Research

In the past, Professor Bachmann's group has been engaged in research on novel electronic materials and structures, methods of crystal growth and epitaxy, including the development of methods of real time process monitoring, and optoelectronic devices. At present, this effort focuses on epitaxy of nearly lattice matched compounds and alloys on silicon, II-IV-V2 compound crystal growth for applications in non-linear optics and rapid thermal processing of wide bandgap III-V compound heterostructures. This present effort is supported by a U.S. Department of Defense MURI in Intelligent Design and Manufacturing in Electronics and Materials and by the National Science Foundation.
