Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Infobox scientist Gabriel Aeppli, PhD FRS (born 25 November 1956 in Zurich) is a Swiss-American electrical engineer, co-founder of the London Centre for Nanotechnology, professor of physics at ETH Zürich and EPF Lausanne, and head of the Synchrotron and Nanotechnology department of the Paul Scherrer Institute, also in Switzerland.[1][2]
He has contributed to spectroscopy on the magnetism of disordered systems and on high-temperature superconductors and antiferromagnetism, identifying magnets with tuneable quantum fluctuations that can be used to study the transition between classical and quantum behavior. His work has helped to demonstrate that quantum spin fluctuations underlie exotic superconductivity.
He has been the recipient of multiple honors, and he has more than 290 peer-review publications, 14,054 total citations from 9,542 documents, and a h-index of 70.
Life
Gabriel, the son of mathematician Alfred Aeppli and Dorothee Aeppli, was born in Zürich 25 November 1956.
Shortly after birth, Gabriel Aeppli moved from Zürich with his father to the United States.[3]
He lived in London, United Kingdom, from 2002 to 2015, when he moved back to Zürich.
Career
He studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he obtained a B.Sc. in 1978 in mathematics and PhD, M.Sc. & B.Sc, in electrical engineering (1983).
He was a research assistant at MIT and an industrial co-op student at IBM. From 1982 he was at the Bell Laboratories hired in 1993 as a distinguished member of the technical staff. From 1996 to 2002, he was a senior research scientist at the NEC Laboratories in Princeton.
From 2002, as Quain Professor of Physics at University College London (UCL), he helped to found the London Centre for Nanotechnology, where he acted as director until March 2015.[4]
His current technical focus is on the implications of photon science and nanotechnology for information processing and health care. He is a board member of Bio Nano Consulting.[5][6]
Currently, he is the director of synchrotron radiation and nanotechnology at the Paul Scherrer Institute.[7]
