Congratulations to Dr. John Lyons, Laboratory University Collaboration Initiative Fellow (Class of 2024), on being elected as a Fellow of the American Physical Society!
This prestigious honor recognizes Dr. Lyons' exceptional contributions to understanding and designing wide-band-gap semiconductors using first-principles methods. As a physical scientist at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory , his groundbreaking work on semiconductor doping and exciton fine structure is advancing the next generation of radar and high-power electronic systems.
What makes this achievement even more remarkable? Fewer than 0.5% of APS members are elected as Fellows each year - a testament to the caliber of talent in our LUCI program.
Dr. Lyons exemplifies how fundamental research drives innovation. His theoretical work on materials like gallium oxide and gallium nitride is laying the foundation for technologies that will support critical defense applications for years to come.
Proud to see our LUCI fellows making such significant impacts in advancing both science and national security!
