Dr. Michael Adachi
Dr. Adachi joined the School of Engineering Science at Simon Fraser University as an Assistant Professor in Fall, 2016. Prior to joining SFU he worked at GlobalFoundries, Hopewell Junction, NY from 2015-16 where he helped with the development of 7 nm and 14 nm CMOS technology for next generation processors. From 2012-2015 he worked in Prof. Sargent’s group at the University of Toronto, and demonstrated sustained lasing using colloidal quantum dots and plasmonic enhanced absorption in colloidal quantum dot solar cells. During Dr. Adachi’s PhD at the University of Waterloo, he fabricated Si nanowire solar cells and demonstrated ultra-high absorption in disordered core-shell crystalline-amorphous Si nanowires. During his Master’s, he fabricated thin film Si solar cells on flexible substrates. He is an Associate Editor of the Journal of The Electrochemical Society and ECS Sensors Plus journal.
