Brief Biography of the Organizer:

Dr Argyrios Varonides is a professor of Physics and Electrical Engineering at the University of Scranton, A Jesuit University. He holds a PhD in Electrical Engineering from Drexel University, Philadelphia, USA, a MS in Physics from Temple University, Philadelphia, USA, and a BS in Physics from the Aristotle University, Thessaloniki Greece. He has published extensively in the field of Photovoltaics (PV), especially in the area of reduced dimensionality photovoltaic devices. His primary interests include (a) modelling quantum size effects in solid state devices (b) high efficiency concepts in solar cells, quantum well solar cells, quantum dot devices, and superlattices (c) tunneling and hopping currents in 2-Dimensional solid state devices.
