Georgia State University Work Values

Daily Duties at Georgia State University:

● Developed novel p-GaAs photodetectors utilizing p-type valence-band transitions for high-temperature operation. ● Achieved room-temperature photovoltaic photodetectors owing to optimization with non-symmetric band configuration. ● Skillfully researched and achieved optical modeling approaches: 1) optimizing detector performance by enhancing the absorption of detectors; 2) full-spectral-range dielectric function (from UV to IR); 3) a universal fitting algorithm to extract optical constants of materials based on experimental optical spectra (e.g., reflection / transmission / absorption); ● Developed the fundamental theory for the internal photoemission based characterizing tool and successfully applied to probing the temperature dependency of semiconductor band offsets. ● Leveraged strong expertise in developing multiple programs (FORTRAN, C, C++, Mathematica etc) encompassing spectral response simulation, optical spectral fitting, internal photoemission fitting, k·p energy band structure computation, transfer matrix method, Kramers-Kronig transform, Levenberg-Marquardt minimization fitting algorithm, multiple oscillator model for extracting optical constants and so on.

What they like about Georgia State University:

A hiring company that offers alternative approaches to pay, performance bonuses, and/or equity in the firm is very attractive to you. You're generally less interested in working for an organization offering only traditional, salary-based compensation, one with limited opportunity to acquire equity in the firm, or one that does not actively promote skill development. In addition, you are more likely to choose a company that offers a variety of internal career options, with defined career paths. You view the learning of new skills and development of your expertise as key to your career advancement. These aspects of an organization may become even more important to you as you progress in your field, and are especially critical if you change career or occupation.
