Luca Larcher (Applied Materials)

Biography: Luca Larcher graduated in Electronic Engineering from the University of Padova, Italy, in 1998. He received his Ph.D. degree in “Information Engineering” from the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in 2002, where is Full Professor of Electronics. In 2017, we co-founded a startup company (MDLSoft Inc), which was acquired by Applied Materials in 2019. From April 1st 2019 he is with Applied Materials. His current research interests include the modeling and characterization of electron devices with focus on physical mechanisms governing charge transport and material degradation. He authored and co-authored one book and three book chapters, and more than 200 technical papers published on international journals and proceedings of international conferences. He has joined the technical and executive committees of the IEEE-IEDM (2006-2007, 2013-2015 – he was the chairman of the Modeling and simulation Committee in 2015), IEEE-IRPS (2011-2012, 2017-2019) and IIRW (2013-2018, he served as General Chair in 2018.
