Woburn, MA | Posted on May 25th, 2010

Professor Schubert is a world-renowned expert in optoelectronic devices and nanostructure-based antireflection coating technology.

Professor Schubert is named as the inventor or co-inventor on twenty eight U.S. patents and has authored or co-authored more than 250 publications. His books include Doping in III-V Semiconductors (1993), Delta Doping in Semiconductors (1996), and the first and second editions of Light-Emitting Diodes (2003 and 2006). He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society, IEEE, Optical Society of America, and SPIE. He received the Alexander von Humboldt Senior Research Award, Discover Award, R&D 100 Award, Boston University Provost Innovation Fund Award, VDE Literature Award for his book Doping in III-V Semiconductors, and the joint R&D Magazine and Micro/Nano Newsletter Award of Most Innovative Products of 2007.

Dr. Ashok K. Sood, President and CEO of Magnolia Solar Corporation, stated, "We are delighted to have Professor Schubert join our Technical Advisory Board to continue our close collaboration on several Government-funded programs. Professor Shubert's expertise will support development of very high efficiency solar cells by incorporating nanostructure based antireflective coatings and light-trapping techniques. Magnolia is developing these next generation, high-efficiency solar cells for both defense and terrestrial markets."
