Education

Harris completed his BS (1964), MS (1965), and PhD (1969) – all in electrical engineering – from Stanford University.[3]

Career

Prior to joining the Stanford department of Electrical Engineering in 1982, James Harris was with Rockwell International Science Center, where he held various positions from Technical Staff Member to Director Optoelectronics Research.[4][5]

Research

Professor Harris’ research interests are in the areas of new electronic and optoelectronic device structures created by heterojunctions, quantum wells, superlattices and nanostructured materials. He has carried out research on novel semiconductor materials and their growth at atomic level dimensions for the past 50 years.[6]

Professor James S. Harris has been issued approximately 37 patents as of this publication (2019).[7]

Awards

gollark: Idea: DMCA all Turing-complete languages with network I/O capabilities, which can technically be used to violate copyright.
gollark: The project could just selfhost gitlab or something.
gollark: China would probably also be bad but in different ways.
gollark: I think the main thing is just that you should have "resources" at nice URLs and use HTTP methods and such.
gollark: It's some very loosely defined thing for HTTP APIs.
