| People Sigurd Wagner Professor Department of Electrical Engineering Princeton University Sigurd Wagner works on devices, processes, and materials for large-area electronics, which is also called macroelectronics or giant electronics. His research interests stem from a career that began at the Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1970, where he worked first within the 1 Kb RAM project, and then on new device applications for ternary chalcopyrite-type compound semiconductors and other novel electronic materials. In the course of this research he co-invented several new solar cells. As branch chief, he established between 1978 and 1980 the photovoltaic laboratory of the newly founded Solar Energy Research Institute at Golden, Colorado. In 1980, he joined Princeton University as professor of electrical engineering. His appointment in Princeton's Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials reflects his interest in electronic materials. He also holds and appointment in the Program in Plasma Science and Technology. He was born and raised in Austria and has held visiting appointments at the Electrotechnical Laboratory, Tsukuba, Japan, the University of Linz, Austria, and was a senior fellow of the Humboldt Foundation at the University of Constance, Germany. He has been active in the IEEE, the Materials Research Society, and the Electrochemical Society, is a fellow of the American Physical Society, of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, and a Corresponding Member of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. He is the author of over 450 publications and co-inventor in thirteen U.S. patents. |
