Roy Clarke is a British-American physicist and educator. He is the Marcellus L. Wiedenbeck Collegiate Professor and University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor at the University of Michigan.[1] He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.[2] He is also a co-founder of k-Space Associates, Inc.[3]
In 2010, Clarke was awarded the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring.[4] He was profiled in Science for his commitment to diversity in physics education.[5]
Career
editClarke earned his B.S. in 1969 and his Ph.D. in 1973, both at Queen Mary University of London.[1]
After a Fellowship at the Cavendish Laboratory, at Cambridge, Clarke received the James Franck Fellowship at the University of Chicago, before finally joining the faculty at the University of Michigan.[6]
He was the founding director of the UM Applied Physics Program in 1987.[6] He became a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 1991.[7]
Research
editClarke's research is in experimental condensed matter physics, and focuses primarily on boundaries and interfaces in thin films and quantum nanostructures. Examples include multilayer structures of magnetic and semiconducting materials, quantum dots and nanowires, and atomic-layer superlattices.
His experiments involve extremely fast events at extremely small scales, and require highly specialized equipment such as x-ray synchrotron radiation, ultrafast laser spectroscopy, and femtosecond time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy.
Applications of his work include energy storage and conversion, as well as real-time, in-situ thin-film metrology approaches for semiconductor production.
