Wolter Siemons currently works at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory...
... performing materials research in the field of nanoscience. In particular he investigates the influence of electron correlation on bulk materials and at interfaces between materials. He holds MSc., MBA, and PhD degrees from the University of Twente in The Netherlands. For his PhD work he spent three years at Stanford University in the United States. Subsequently, he was a scientist at the University of California at Berkeley working on thermoelectric materials for clean energy. He is proficient in a wide variety of film growth and analysis techniques. His specific research interests over the last years are interface physics, correlated electron systems, epitaxial stabilization of materials, and materials for energy.
