Prof. Krishna Receives Early Career Award

SPIE, the international society of scientists and engineers who work with optics and photonics, this month honored ECE Professor Sanjay Krishna with its Early Career Achievement Award.

Given for the first time in 2008, it was conferred on Dr. Krishna "in recognition of his tremendous contributions to the development of mid-infrared focal plane arrays using self-assembled quantum dots in a well design."

To see SPIE's announcment of the award, go to http://spie.org/x7066.xml. Dr. Krishna received a $2,000 honorarium.

The award will now be given annually to an early career professional in recognition of significant and innovative technical contributions to any of the engineering or scientific fields of interest to SPIE.

This award follows the September presentation to Dr. Krishna of the 2007 Young Investigator Award by the North American Molecular Beam Epitaxy (NAMBE) Advisory Board. The award was presented during the NAMBE conference in Albuquerque that month.

Dr. Krishna is an associate professor with the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department whose office is located at UNM's Center for High Technology Materials. He can be reached at skrishna@chtm.unm.edu.

Congratulations, Dr. Krishna.
