Dr. Gerhard Klimeck High Performance Computing Group NASA, Jet Propulsion Laboratory |
|---|
| Dr. Gerhard Klimeck is the technical group supervisor of the High Performance Computing Group since April 2002 and a Principal member at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory since Sept. 2001. He joined JPL in February 1998 as a Senior member technical staff. His research interest is in the quantum mechanical modeling of electron transport through nanoelectronic devices, parallel cluster computing, and genetic algorithms. At JPL he has utilized technology in these three areas to explore the nanoelectronic design space and has developed the 3-D Nanoelectronic Modeling tool (NEMO 3-D) that enables the analysis of electronic structure in systems containing as many as 16 million atoms. Previously he was a member of technical staff at the Central Research Lab of Texas Instruments (which transitioned to the Applied Research Laboratory of Raytheon) where he served as manager and principal architect of the Nanoelectronic Modeling ( NEMO ) program. The tool is available to the U.S. research community; look for details here. Dr. Klimeck received his Ph.D. in 1994 from Purdue University where he studied electron transport through quantum dots, resonant tunneling diodes and 2-D electron gases. His research for his German electrical engineering degree which he obtained in 1990 from Ruhr-University Bochum concerned the study of laser noise propagation. Dr. Klimeck's work is documented in over 60 publications. He is a member of IEEE, APS, HKN and TBP. |
