Bio
Dr. Detchprohm’s primary focus lays in the epitaxial technology, device fabrication and device physics of group III-nitride semiconductor. At RPI, he currently concentrates on improving performance of GaInN based light emitters in the green (520-560 nm) for solid state lighting and laser applications.
