Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:EngvarB Шаблон:Infobox scientist Iain Douglas Baikie,[1] Шаблон:Post-nominals (born 27 August 1960) is a Scottish physicist, inventor and company Director. He specialises in Material Science.[2][3] Baikie supervises PhDs at Imperial College London and the University of St Andrews in thin-film electronics.[4][3] In 2000 he founded a company- KP Technology in Wick.[5] In 1997 Baikie was appointed Professor of Applied Physics with a Chair in Materials Science for his work on surface work function and the scanning Kelvin probe and is visiting professor at the Nanotechnology and Integrated Bio-Engineering Centre at the University of Ulster, Belfast.[6][7] He is an honorary professor at the University of St Andrews.[8]

Research

Baikie developed the UK's first UHV High Resolution Scanning Kelvin Probe (SKP) incorporating surface tracking which has been applied to a range of surface phenomena. His research was awarded the alpha 5 status, indicating "Highly significant contribution to the field“. All EPSRC projects held by Prof. Baikie have achieved a minimum of alpha 4 for scientific/technical merit. Ambient and vacuum versions of the device have been developed. Application of the Vacuum version include in-situ profiling of high and low work function surfaces as suitable targets for hyperthermal surface ionisation, work which was funded by DERA.[9]

Honours

Baikie was one of the people who received a John Logie Baird Award in 2008, given in name of John Logie Baird by Logie Baird's grandson, for innovation and enterprise.[10] In November 2015, the Institute of Physics awarded Baikie the Swan Medal and Prize for his contributions to the development of Kelvin probe method instrumentation.[11] Baikie was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2017 New Year Honours for services to science education.[1][12]
