Since autumn 1992, 19 Ph.D. students have got their degrees under my personal guidance and 6 students have passed the Licentiate exam. Reviewer for many international research funding agencies and scientific journals. Opponent and examiner for several Ph.D. dissertations abroad. Entrepreneurial achievements:
Started up a company in Nano-science (2004), started a research group in Linköping University (1985), and a research group in Gothenburg University (1994), and again a research group in Linköping University (2006) all from level zero. Teaching: Undergraduate teaching in semiconductor technology/semiconductor physics and solidstate electronics. (I have developed and I was responsible for these courses 1985-1995 at the University of Linköping). Solid-state electronics was also a Ph.D. course. I have also been responsible for several electronic and optoelectronic courses for the industry. General responsibility for undergraduate courses in electronics at the University of Gothenburg since 1995. I have the responsibility of teaching different graduate courses (Ph. D. courses). Ph. D. courses in Linköping University since 2006. Membership: American Physical Society Coordinator of EU projects "Nandos" 2005-2008 "Nanocell" 2002-2005 "Optical and electro-optical studies of novel MBE-grown nanostructures based on Be chalcogenides and related alloys" 1999-2001 "Spin and intersubband relaxation in two dimensional systems" 2002-2004. I have participated in more than 15 EU projects. Ph. D. supervision: I have been the main supervisor (handledare) of the following students (totally 19): D.X. Xu, 1991, G.D. Shen, 1991 (with Prof. G. Hansson), M. Karlsteen, 1994, Q. Chen, 1993, A. Assadi (1994), Q. Ul Wahab, (1994), A. Ouacha, 1995, O. Nur, (1996), Y.B. Wang (1997), S.M. Cao (1997), A. Kindlihagen (1997), T. Johansson (1998), Y. Yousif (2001), H. Ouacha (2002), A. P. Jacob (2002), P. Sundqvist (2003), Tobias Myrberg (2004), Zakaria Chiragwandi (2006), and P. Klason (2008). 14 got at once post-doc positions, 2 become professors very fast, and 3 continued with industrial technical research.
