Lidzey, David  PhD

Leading researcher with 390 publications in the last 32 years
1985-1988: BSc. Physics, University of Birmingham 1988-1990: Research and development in photographic chemistry, Kodak Ltd. (Harrow). 1990-1994: PhD in Applied Physics, University of Birmingham 1995-1997: Postdoctoral research with Prof. D.D.C. Bradley OBE FRS. 1997-1999: Lloyds of London Tercentenary Research Fellowship. 1999-2004: EPSRC Advanced Research Fellowship. 2004 - 2006: Reader in Physics, University of Sheffield 2007 – present: Personal Chair in Physics My research interests are based around the electronic properties of semiconductor materials, and their interaction with light. This interest was developed during 2 years of industrial research performed at Kodak Ltd following my undergraduate degree, and matured throughout my PhD, postdoc and Fellowship research. The themes of my current research range from the fundamental optical and electronic properties of organic semiconductors and organic nanostructures, to applied research in the applications of organic and perovskite semiconductors in photovoltaic devices (solar cells), displays and optoelectronics. I have a detailed interest in photonics, spectroscopy and nanotechnology, with a particular interest being strong-coupling coupling regime in organic-semiconductor microcavities. I direct the Electronic and Photonic Molecular Materials Group (EPMM) at Sheffield which includes more than 20 PhDs, Fellows and PDRAs. I collaborate with many other experimental and theory groups both at national and international level. Such collaborative links have been facilitated through a number of large European research projects that I have been involved with, including LUPO, EuroLED, HYTEC (coordinator), POLYCOM and ICARUS (coordinator). I have successfully supervised 20 students to completion of their PhD. I am active in the commercialisation of research, and am the Chairman and co-founder of the materials science company Ossila Ltd (www.ossila.com). show More
