High Mobility and Quantum Well Transistors

Geert Hellings received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the KU Leuven, Belgium, in 2007. His master thesis was on III-nitride-based UV detectors for space applications. He obtained the PhD degree from the Electrical Engineering Department (ESAT), Integrated Systems Division (INSYS) at the University of Leuven, Belgium. During his PhD, he worked on the integration of high-mobility channel materials for digital logic applications at imec, Leuven, Belgium. He received a Ph.D. grant from the Institute for the Promotion of Innovation through Science and Technology in Flanders (IWT-Vlaanderen), Brussels, Belgium. He won the 2008 IEEE Region 8 Student Paper Contest and received the 2011 imec Scientific Excellence Award. He has authored or co-authored approximately 70 technical papers for publication in journals and presentations at conferences and holds various patents. Kristin De Meyer M.Sc.
