A. F. J. Levi
Professor of Electrical Engineering and Physics
B.Sc. 1980, University of Sussex
Ph.D. 1983, University of Cambridge
Tony Levi joined the USC faculty in mid-1993 after working for 10 years at
AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey. He
invented hot electron spectroscopy, discovered
ballistic electron transport in heterostructure bipolar transistors, demonstrated
room temperature operation
of unipolar transistors with ballistic electron transport, created the first
microdisk laser, and carried out work in
parallel
fiber optic interconnect components in computer and switching systems. His
current research interests include high-performance electronic and photonic
systems, RF photonics,
very small lasers and
modeling their behavior,
optimal design of small
electronic and photonic systems,
and
coherent
control of transient dynamics.
To date he has published numerous scientific
papers, several book chapters, is author of the books 'Applied Quantum Mechanics',
'Essential Classical Mechanics for Device Physics',
'Essential
Semiconductor Laser Device Physics',
'Essential
Electron transport for Device Physics', and coeditor of the book 'Optimal
Device Design', and holds 17 U.S. patents
