Erwin Kessels is a full professor in the Department of Applied Physics at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and the scientific director of the NanoLab@TU/e facilities, which provide a full-service open-access clean room infrastructure for R&D in nanotechnology. His research interests encompass the synthesis of ultrathin films and nanostructures using methods such as plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD) for a wide variety of applications, primarily in the fields of nanoelectronics and photovoltaics. Kessels has made significant contributions to the area of ALD, particularly in plasma-assisted ALD, research on ALD for photovoltaics, and ALD nanopatterning, including area-selective ALD. Currently, he is focusing his research on atomic scale processing, a field believed to grow rapidly in importance over the next decade across various application domains, with an aim to advance atomic scale processing in energy and information technologies, as well as in photovoltaics and nanoelectronics. Kessels obtained his MSc in 1996 and his PhD with honors in 2000 from TU/e, and has a diverse background including research at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Colorado State University, and Philipps University in Marburg, Germany. In 2007, he received the Peter Mark Memorial Award from the American Vacuum Society.
