Joseph J. Loferski : ウィキペディア英語版 | Joseph J. Loferski
Joseph John Loferski (August 7, 1925 – January 20, 1997) was a physicist and a professor of engineering at Brown University. ''The New York Times'' called him "a pioneer in the development of solar cells". During his long and successful career he focused primarily on photovoltaic cells and their ability to convert the energy in light to electricity. Loferski also wrote and spoke extensively on the physics of semiconductor materials such as silicon, and methods of improving the efficiency of photovoltaic cells. Loferski’s work and that of other early researchers proved that semiconductor devices could produce commercially viable, pollution-free electricity. ==Early life and education== Joseph J. Loferski was born in Hudson, Pennsylvania, the son of a coal miner. He went to college at University of Scranton and attended the University of Pennsylvania, earning his master’s degree in 1949 and his doctorate in 1953. At RCA Laboratories in Princeton, New Jersey, Loferski and his colleague Paul Rappaport began researching photovoltaic cells and solar energy. ==Academic career== In 1961, Loferski joined the division of engineering at Brown University. He served as chairman of the division of engineering from 1968 to 1974, and as associate dean of the graduate school from 1980 to 1983. Loferski published over 150 technical papers and contributed chapters to five books. He was also the co-recipient of six patents in the semi-conductor field and was a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers.
