Michael Kneissl is a German physicist and professor at the Institute of Solid State Physics at Technische Universität Berlin.
Kneissl received his doctoral degree in physics from the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg in 1996.[1] During his graduate studies, he was also a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1993. He joined the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) in 1996. Since 2005, he has been a Full Professor and the Chair of Experimental Nanophysics and Photonics Group at the TU Berlin.[2] He holds a joint appointment at the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut in Berlin, where he heads the Joint Lab GaN-Optoelectronics.[3] Excluding a two-year hiatus in 2021 he has served as the Executive Director of the Institute of Solid State Physics at TU Berlin since 2011.
His research interests include group III-nitride semiconductor materials, metalorganic vapour-phase epitaxy of wide-bandgap semiconductors and (In)AlGaN nanostructures as well as novel optoelectronic devices, including UV LEDs and laser diodes.[4][5]
He was named Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 2016[6] for contributions to the development of wide bandgap semiconductor laser diodes and ultraviolet LEDs. He holds more than 60 patents in the area of group III-nitride device technologies.[7]
