Auteur
Harald Fuchs: Director of the Physical Institute of the University of Münster and Scientific Director of the Center for Nanotechnology (CeNTech). After studying theoretical physics at the University of Saarbrücken and his PhD in materials physics on nanocrystalline systems, he worked at the IBM research laboratory in Rüschlikon, and at BASF before he moved as a full professor to the Institute of Physics at the University of Münster. His research focuses on nanoanalytical methods, and interfacial physics including computer modelling. He received the Philip Morris research prize for his work on nanotechnology. He is member of the German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina and the German Academy of Science and Engineering (acatech). He has co-authored more than 300 original papers, filed 33 patent applications and is co-founder of two companies. He holds two guest professorships in China and serves as cochairman of the advisory editorial board of Small.
