Jeremy Baumberg has been elected to a Professorship in Experimental Physics, and will be joining the Cavendish Laboratory in the Michaelmas Term 2007.
Jeremy returns to Cambridge from the University of Southampton, where he is Director of NanoScience, NanoTechnology and Nanomaterials, and leader of the Quantum Light and Matter Group in the School of Physics and Astronomy. He also directs the recently opened NanoMaterials Rapid Prototyping Facility and the NanoMaterials Forum at the University of Southampton, which stimulate novel Nano-research across interdisciplinary boundaries.
The focus of his research at Southampton is on NanoPhotonics, producing new sorts of Nano-Materials in which the interaction of light and matter is completely altered. As well as traditional tools for building nanostructures, he has developed a new range of self-assembly and nano-templating techniques which allow cheap nanostructures to be made in large quantities.
Jeremy was an undergraduate at Jesus College in the 1980s, where he gained First Class Honours in Natural Sciences (Physics), and a member of the Hitachi Cambridge Laboratory from 1994 to 1998.
He holds a PhD from Oxford and spent time as a research fellow there and as an IBM postdoctoral fellow at UC Santa Barbara.
