Arman Rashidi

Biography

Arman is currently a Postdoctoral Scholar in Prof. Stemmer’s group at UCSB. Before joining UCSB, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow and earlier a Ph.D. student at the Center for High‐Technology Materials (CHTM) at the University of New Mexico (UNM) where he studied carrier dynamics in nonpolar and semipolar GaN LEDs for visible-light communication and solid-state lighting applications. His other areas of work at UNM included MOCVD growth, fabrication, and characterization of III‐nitrides devices such as high‐speed micro-LEDs and superluminescent diodes, vertical‐cavity surface‐emitting lasers, and p-n diodes for power electronics. Before coming to the U.S., he earned his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Shiraz University (Iran), in 2012 and 2014, respectively.
