Solid State Nanopores

lt;b>Jean-Pierre Leburton is Gregory Stillman Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Adjunct Professor at the University of Illinois in Chicago. He joined the University of Illinois in 1981 from Germany, where he worked as Research Scientist with the Siemens A.G. Research Laboratory in Munich. In 1992, he held Hitachi LTD Chair on Quantum Materials at the University of Tokyo and was Visiting Professor in the Federal Polytechnic Institute in Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2000. He is involved with research in nanostructures modeling and in quantum device simulation. His present research interest encompasses nonlinear transport in quantum wires and carbon nanotubes, spintronics, and molecular and bio-nanoelectronics.
Professor Leburton is Author and Co-author of more than 300 technical papers in international journals and books as well as of several patents in device electronics, and served as Chairman, Advisory and Program Committees in numerous international conferences. In 1993, he was awarded the title of "Chevalier dans l'Ordre des Palmes Académiques" by the French Government. He is Life Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) and Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), the Optical Society of America (OSA), the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the Electrochemical Society (ECS), and the Institute of Physics (IOP). He is also Member of the New York Academy of Science. From 2011 to 2015, he was Distinguished Lecturer for the IEEE Nanotechnology Council. In 2004, he was Recipient of the ISCS Quantum Device Award, and of the Gold medal for scientific achievement by the Alumnus Association of the University of Liége, Belgium. In 2019, he received the CCMR Serendipity Award, Seoul Korea, and in 2021, he was Laureate of the IEEE-NTC Pioneer Award in nanotechnology. Since 201, he is Associate Member of the Royal Academy of Sciences of Belgium.
