Prof. Jasprit Singh earned his Ph.D. in solid state physics from the University
of Chicago in 1980. His thesis dealt with the electronic properties of
disordered
semiconductors. He spent the next three years at
the University of Southern
California, Los Angeles, as a Post Doctoral
Fellow, working on developing an
understanding of crystal growth by molecular
beam epitaxy. He also continued his work
on the effect of disorder on localization of electronic states at Si-SiO2
interface. In 1983 he joined Wright-Patterson Air Force Laboratories. Here
he continued
his work on MBE growth modeling and examined the influence of interfaces on
excitonic effects. Jasprit Singh joined the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor,
in 1985. He was promoted to full professor in 1991.
He works in the area of optical
and electronic properties of semiconductors and their heterostructures.
