On Sunday, February 28, 2027, a half-day of complimentary Tutorials will kick off AWE-1. Tutorials are intended for distinguished lecturers to teach a variety of introductory ellipsometry fundamentals, more advanced concepts in instrumentation and data analysis, as well as more specialized applications.
Gerald E. Jellison
Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Working Title: ellipsometry 101, matrices, etc.
Tutorial Speaker Bio _tbd_
New Mexico State University
Working Title: contributions of interband electronic transitions to the dielectric function
Stefan Zollner received his B.S. (1983) in physics from the Universität Regensburg, and his M.S. (1987) and Ph.D. (1991) in physics from the Universität Stuttgart and the Max-Planck-Institut für Festkörperforschung, all in Germany. After a postdoctoral year at the IBM Research Division in Yorktown Heights, NY, and a five-year appointment at Iowa State University and the Ames Laboratory (US-DOE), he worked for 15 years as a semiconductor engineer in metrology and process integration at Motorola, Freescale, and IBM. Since 2010, he has been the Head of the Department of Physics at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, NM. His research interests include precision measurements of temperature-dependent optical constants using spectroscopic ellipsometry and their interpretation to determine basic properties of solids; ultrafast processes in semiconductors using femtosecond pump-probe laser spectroscopy; and the development of novel materials for applications in microelectronics and optoelectronics. He authored ~200 peer-reviewed journal articles, and is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Vacuum Society, and an IEEE Senior Member.
