Binh-Minh (Minh) Nguyen has extensive experience in the field of infrared cameras and topological quantum materials. Binh-Minh (Minh) worked as a Senior Scientist at HRL Laboratories, LLC from May 2014, where they managed and served as Principal Investigator on several government CRAD programs, accumulating a total contract value of over $19 million. Minh established strong customer relationships in DARPA and AFRL, actively engaging in pre-proposal customer interactions and leading or contributing to multiple proposals.
Prior to that, Minh worked as a Director's Postdoctoral Fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory from January 2012 to May 2014. In this role, they focused on device physics modeling, CVD growth, and fabrication and characterization of novel device concepts based on Ge-Si nanowire structures. Binh-Minh (Minh) also contributed to collaborative projects and supported CINT user projects from top-tier institutions.
From January 2011 to December 2011, Minh served as a Research Assistant Professor at the Center for Quantum Devices, Northwestern University. Binh-Minh (Minh) led the research activity of the "Type-II superlattice" group and managed a team working on various DoD funded projects. Binh-Minh (Minh)'sresearch focused on exploring novel phenomena and physics of surface processes in Type-II superlattice detectors, as well as the growth, fabrication, and characterization of 2-color long wavelength infrared focal plane arrays.
Minh also worked as a Technical Director at MP Technologies, LLC from November 2010 to December 2011. In this role, they wrote proposals and served as Principle Investigator for awarded SBIR contracts. Binh-Minh (Minh) conducted research and development for processing and fabrication of detectors and focal plane arrays based on Type-II superlattices.
Moreover, Minh gained experience as a Research Assistant at the Center for Quantum Devices, Northwestern University from April 2005 to September 2010. Binh-Minh (Minh)'sresponsibilities included band structure modeling, Molecular beam epitaxial growth, and single-element device fabrication of Type II InAs/GaSb superlattices for infrared detectors. Binh-Minh (Minh) also participated in DoD-funded projects for the development of Type-II superlattice technology.
Binh-Minh (Minh) Nguyen obtained a PhD in EECS from Northwestern University, where they studied from 2005 to 2010. Prior to that, they pursued a Ms in Physics from École Polytechnique from 2002 to 2005. Their education journey began with a focus on Physics at Dai hoc Quoc Gia Hà Nội from 1999 to 2002. Additionally, there is no specific information available regarding their educational experience at Hanoi Amsterdam.
