David Leadley
Research interests
David Leadley has worked on the optical and electronic properties of both Group IV and III-V semiconductor heterostructures for some 35 years, using an understanding of the underlying physics to improve material and device performance. Currently he is interested in the SiGe based system and particularly using Ge for advanced CMOS and beyond CMOS applications in electronics, photonics, spintronics, photovoltaics and thermoelectrics. He has been involved in many collaborative projects and played a major role in setting up and running the European SiNANO Network.
