Robert Huber (physicist)
Robert Alexander Huber (born February 14, 1973 in Munich ) is a German physicist and professor at the Institute for Biomedical Optics at the University of Lübeck .
Life
Huber attended elementary school in Schnaitsee from 1979 to 1983 and then switched to Luitpold-Gymnasium Wasserburg am Inn , where he graduated from high school in 1992. He then studied physics at the LMU Munich until January 1998 , where he received his doctorate in 2002 in the group of Josef Wachtveitl at the Institute for Medical Optics with a thesis on the subject of electron transfer at dye-semiconductor interfaces .
He spent several years at the Research Laboratory of Electronics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) thanks to an international scholarship, which was followed by a post-doc . There he developed the Fourier Domain Mode Locking Laser. After five years as a junior research group leader at the Chair of BioMolecular Optics at LMU Munich, he accepted a position at the Institute for Biomedical Optics at the University of Lübeck in 2013.
