معرفی
Dr. Shi Zhisheng is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Oklahoma's Gallogly College of Engineering. He holds the Gerald Tuma Presidential Professorship (2007). His academic journey includes a PhD in Physics from the University of Freiburg (1995) and postdoctoral research at ETH Zurich (1995-1997). He has been a faculty member at OU since 1997.
Research Interests: Dr. Shi leads the Opto-Electronic Research Group, focusing on thin film semiconductors, mid-wave infrared (MWIR) lasers and detectors, nanophotonics, and quantum dot solar cells. His lab pioneered IV-VI lead salt vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers and room-temperature photonic crystal lasers. Notable achievements include resolving a century-old ambiguity in PbSe photoconductors and achieving record high specific detectivity (D*) in MWIR detectors.
Lab Infrastructure: The lab houses three molecular-beam-epitaxy (MBE) chambers, wet-chemical synthesis tools, and advanced nanophotonic device fabrication capabilities.
Scientific Awards: Dr. Shi was honored with the Gerald Tuma Presidential Professorship in 2007, recognizing his contributions to optoelectronics and semiconductor research.
Grants & Collaborations: His work has been supported by grants focusing on semiconductor materials, thermoelectrics, and optoelectronic device development. Key collaborations include institutions like the Fraunhofer Institute and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.
