Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Alexander Golden's research centers on the development and characterization of semiconductor materials, with a particular focus on Germanium-Tin (GeSn) alloys. His work involves automating and upgrading custom UHV-CVD reactors to facilitate the growth of high-quality group IV materials. Golden investigates GeSn growth dynamics and mechanisms using in situ mass spectrometry and real-time optical monitoring systems to optimize material properties. His research has led to demonstrations of GeSn selective area growth for SWIR light detection and material capable of lasing at 2250 nm. Golden has published on tuning the surface plasmon resonance of gold nanostructures, indicating a broader interest in nanomaterials. He has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Enbo Yang and Joshua M. Grant, on multiple publications.
