Prof. Şefik Süzer from the Department of Chemistry has been awarded the Gaede Langmuir Award, presented biennially by the American Vacuum Society to only one individual.
Prof. Süzer will receive the award and deliver a presentation on his work at the society’s conference to be held in Pittsburgh this November. Fifteen years ago, he was also elected Fellow of the same organization.
Founded in 1953, the American Vacuum Society (AVS) is an international scientific society with approximately 4,500 members. The society supports research in fields such as materials science, surface and interface technologies, vacuum systems, thin films, plasma, and nanotechnology, and brings together scientists and engineers working in these areas. The Gaede Langmuir Award is presented to researchers whose scientific discoveries and inventions have made major contributions to the fields represented by AVS.
