Hans Lüth
Hans Lüth (born November 28, 1940 in Aachen ) is a German experimental solid-state physicist .
Live and act
Lüth received his doctorate in Aachen in 1968 with the dissertation: Electro reflection in the infrared on zinc oxide and completed his habilitation there in 1973 with his habilitation thesis: Spectroscopy of electronic surface states on ZnO using modulated photoconductivity measurements . In 1980 he was taken on as a professor at RWTH Aachen University and appointed full professor from 1988. Until 2007, Lüth was director of the Institute for Bio- and Nanosystems at Forschungszentrum Jülich .
Lüth undertook research stays at the University of Paris , at the Thomas J. Watson Research Center of IBM in Yorktown Heights and at the University of Marseille . He deals with semiconductor interfaces and surfaces, epitaxy of semiconductors, semiconductor components , nanostructures and quantum components. Together with Harald Ibach , Lüth is the author of a standard German textbook on solid state physics.
In 2007 he was awarded an honorary doctorate from the Université de Haute-Alsace in Mulhouse and in 2006 he received the Rudolf Jaeckel Prize .
Lüth was co-editor of Applied Physics A and the Springer Series in Surface Science .
