Citation: For his pioneering contributions to epitaxy, to characterization of strained heterostructures, to self-organized quantum dots and to their device applications.

“It is a distinct honor to be recognized by TMS and my peers as the recipient of the 2008 John Bardeen Award. It is a tribute to all my students, research associates and collaborators. It is very special to be associated with this award that recognizes the name of John Bardeen and his contributions to science.”

Nominate Your Colleague for the TMS 2009 John Bardeen Award!
John Bardeen’s career of theoretical and experimental research set the foundation for the current state of understanding of electronic materials. Two areas in which Bardeen had great impact were the invention and development of the solid-state transistor and the theory that developed greater understanding of superconductivity.
