Boris Ionowitsch Schklowski

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Boris Ionowitsch Schklowski ( Russian Борис Ионович Шкловский , English transcription Boris Shklovskii; born January 31, 1944 ) is a Russian-American theoretical solid-state physicist .

Schklowski studied physics at the Leningrad State University with a diploma in 1965. He received his doctorate in 1968 at the Joffe Institute in Leningrad and was then a permanent scientist there. In 1989 he became a professor at the University of Minnesota , where he is AS Fine Professor of Theoretical Physics and from 1996 to 1999 he was head of the William I. Fine Theoretical Physics Institute .

It deals with transport theory and electron-electron correlations in disordered semiconductor systems (introduction of Coulomb Gap localized in the spectrum of Einteilchendichte electron states in 1975 with Alexei Efros ), so-called hopping - Semiconductors (see band model ), with metallic phase transitions, the quantum Hall effect , Theory of supercapacitors and also biophysics (such as shielding DNA by ions, theory of the transport of ions and DNA through ion channels, self-assembly of viruses).

In 1986 he received the Landau Prize with Efros . In 1994 he became a Fellow of the American Physical Society , which awarded him its Oliver E. Buckley Condensed Matter Prize for 2019 .
