Hartmut Albert Haug (born July 24, 1936 in Stuttgart ) is a German theoretical physicist who has made significant contributions to the quantum theory of the optical properties of semiconductors and semiconductor microstructures.

biography

Haug studied physics at the University of Stuttgart from 1957 to 1966 . In 1966/67 he was a research assistant at the Institute for Theoretical Physics and received his doctorate in 1966 under Hermann Haken on the theory of the semiconductor laser . At the University of Wisconsin – Madison he was an assistant professor from 1967 to 1969 and then an associate professor.

This was followed by four years in the theory group of the Philips Research Laboratory in Eindhoven, before he became Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main in 1973 . Research stays as a visiting professor a. a. at the universities of Karlsruhe, Strasbourg, Tucson and Bloomington. Since 2001 he has continued his research in Frankfurt as an emeritus .
