This year’s Julius Springer Prize for Applied Physics will be awarded to Greek-born Phaedon Avouris and Tony Heinz for their pioneering work on the electrical and optical properties of nanoscale carbon materials including carbon nanotubes – from basic science to exciting applications.
The award, accompanied by US$ 5,000, will be presented at the Julius
Springer Forum on Applied Physics 2008 at Harvard University in
Cambridge, MA, on September 27. Avouris and Heinz’s studies of the electronic properties of nanotubes and graphene aim at developing a future nanoelectronic technology with devices that will be vastly more compact, fast and energy efficient than the current silicon-based devices. Phaedon Avouris received his B.Sc. degree from Aristotle University in Greece and was awarded his Ph.D. degree in physical chemistry at Michigan State University. He is currently an IBM Fellow and manager of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology at IBM’s Research Division at the Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY. He has also been an adjunct professor at Columbia University and the University of Illinois.
