Randall M. Feenstra
Feenstra completed a bachelor's degree in engineering physics from the University of British Columbia in 1978, followed by his master's and doctorate in applied physics at the California Institute of Technology.[1][2] From 1982 - 1995 he was a research staff member at the Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, New York. Since 1995, he has taught at Carnegie Mellon University,[1] where he conducts research in semiconductors.
Randall M. Feenstra is a physicist.
Feenstra is a fellow of the American Vacuum Society, and was the 1989 recipient of its Peter Mark Memorial Award.[2] He was elected to fellowship of the American Physical Society in 1997, "[f]or contributions to the development of the Scanning Tunneling Microscope as a spectroscopic tool to probe semiconductor surfaces and surface phenomena,"[3] and was awarded the APS Davisson–Germer Prize in Atomic or Surface Physics in 2019, "[f]or pioneering developments of the techniques and concepts of spectroscopic scanning tunneling microscopy."[1][4]
