David Citrin, Georgia Tech USA France

D. S. Citrin received the B.A. degree in Physics from Williams College, Williamstown, Massachusetts in 1985 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from the University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois in 1987 and 1991, respectively. From 1992 to 1993, he was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow with the Max Planck Institute fürFestkörperforschung, Stuttgart, Germany, where he conducted research on exciton radiative decay in low-dimensional semiconductor structures. Subsequently, from 1993 to 1995, he was a Center Fellow with the Center for Ultrafast Optical Science, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan where he researched ultrafast phenomena in quantum wells. He was then an Assistant Professor of Physics with Washington State University, Pullman, Washington, from 1995 to 2001. In 2001, he joined the faculty ofthe Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia, where he is currently aProfessor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. In addition, he coordinates the research effort on nondestructive evaluation with the international research laboratory Georgia TechCNRS IRL2958, Georgia Tech-Europe, Metz, France. His research interests include terahertz science and technology, heterogeneous microelectronics packaging, microwave photonics, quasiperiodic lattices,nonlinear dynamics of external-cavity semiconductor lasers,nanophotonics,and archaeometry. Citrin is a former Associate Editor of the IEEE JOURNAL OF QUANTUM ELECTRONICS. He was a recipient of a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), an award under the US Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Program (YIP), and of a Friedrich Bessel Prize from the Alexander von Humboldt Stiftung.
