Manijeh Razeghi
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering

Manijeh Razeghi, (Ph.D. and ES-Science Doctorate, University of Paris), Walter P. Murphy Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Director of Center for Quantum Devices. Between 1981 and 1985 she was a Senior Research Scientist at Thomson-CSF, Orsay and in 1991 headed the Exploratory Materials Lab there. Dr. Razeghi is one of the leading scientists in the field of semiconductor science and technology. She is a pioneer in the development and implementation of major modern epitaxial techniques such as MOCVD, VPE, MBE GasMBE, and MOMBE for the growth of entire compositional range of III-V compound semiconductors, heterostructures, quantum wells and superlattices for quantum photonics and electronic devices (from 200 µm up to 20 µm). She has made prolific and far-ranging contributions to the field. Her book, MOCVD Challenge, contains some of her pioneering work in InP-GaInAsP based system (Volume 1) and GaAs-GaInAsP system (Volume 2). Most recently, she is involved in research on quantum well infrared detectors, quantum cascade lasers, Sb-based type I and type II infrared high power lasers and uncooled detectors; as well as GaN-GaAlN visible and UV emitters and detectors. Dr. Razeghi received the IBM Europe Science and Technology Prize (1987), 1995 Achievement Award from the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), Best Paper Award at the Photonics West Optoelectronics ‘98 Symposium (1998). Dr. Razeghi was elected a Fellow of SPIE (2000) and Fellow of SWE (1995). She is the author of 5 books and the author of 15 book chapters. She is the author or co-author of more than 1000 papers and gave more than 300 invited and plenary talks. She holds 50 patents.
