Terahertz Detection of Many-Body Signatures in Semiconductor Heterostructures
Professor Sangam Chatterjee, professor of physics, Philipps-Universität Marburg,
Speaker's Bio:
Dr. Chatterjee received his diploma at the University of Karlsruhe, Germany in Prof. M. Wegener's group for investigations on "Signature of Electron-Plasmon Quantum Kinetics in GaAs". During his graduate studies at the Optical Sciences Center at The University of Arizona in Prof. Hyatt Gibbs' group he investigated exciton formation dynamics in (GaIn)As/GaAs quantum wells and was involved in the realization of semiconductor nanocavities for cavity-QED experiments. After joining the Philipps-Universität Marburg, his research interests include gain spectroscopy of various standard and novel materials, including dilute nitrides and direct III-V-semiconductors on GaP or Si, spectroscopy of manybody-excitations in semiconductor heterostructures, especially exciton dynamics and semiconductor disk lasers.
