Karl Berggren

Emanuel E. Landsman Associate Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science

Methods of nanofabrication, especially applied to superconducting photodetectors, templated self-assembly, computing

Karl Berggren is the Emanuel E. Landsman (1958) Career Development Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering at MIT, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, where he heads the Quantum Nanostructures and Nanofabrication Group. He is also director of the Nanostructures Laboratory in the Research Laboratory of Electronics and is a core faculty member in the Microsystems Technology Laboratory.

From 1996 to 2003, Berggren served as a staff member at MIT Lincoln Laboratory in Lexington, Mass. His current research focuses on methods of nanofabrication, especially applied to superconductive quantum circuits, photodetectors, high-speed superconductive electronics, and energy systems. His thesis work focused on nanolithographic methods using neutral atoms.
