Prof. Steven George (UC Boulder) receives DPS Nishizawa Award

Prof. Steven George from the University of Colorado at Boulder has received the DPS Nishizawa Award from the International Symposium on Dry Process (DPS). Prof. George accepted the DPS Nishizawa Award during the DPS2024 symposium held at the Chitose Civic Culture Center in Hokkaido, Japan on November 14 and 15, 2024. The DPS Nishizawa Award is the highest award in DPS. This award recognizes an individual who has made outstanding academic/technological achievements in fields of interest to DPS. The DPS Symposium covers all aspects of the rapidly evolving fields of dry processes, including but not limited to plasma etching and deposition processes, diagnostics and modeling of plasmas and surfaces, and surface modifications by plasmas, for the applications in, e.g., microelectronics, power devices, sensors, environmental protection, biological systems, and medicine. The DPS has provided valuable forums for in-depth discussion among professionals and students working in this exciting field for more than four decades.
