I was a University Physics Academic and Solid State Researcher
most recemtly at the
Univeristy of Exeter,UK, Physics Department
and previously at the
University of Sussex, UK, School of Physics and Astronomy
Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, Framce, Laboratoire de Physique
University of Reading, UK, J J Thomson Physical Laboratory

I am curremtly an independent semicondor consultant.


      The main theme of my pysics research has been lattice defects
amd impurity atoms in crystaline solids,
including their creation and incorpotation by particle and ion irradiation,
and by crystal growth, and their properties and effects,
and their investigation by electronic mrthods
(capacitance-voltage analysis, DLTS and MCTS)
and desity functiional theory calculations for semiconductors,
and by ion beam methods
(Rutherford back-scattering, ion chanelling and nuclear ractions)
for metals.

The subjects of my researh papers listed below are indicated
by the various coloured symbols.

If you would like a pdf copy of any those publications,
please send your request to my e-mail address stated above.
I shall be pleased if, with your requst, you will like to include the name
of your academic or industrial organisation
