Chomani K Gaspe

Chomani K Gaspe, Ph.D., is a Principal Scientist at ManTech since January 2021, specializing in the development of SiGe heterostructures for quantum devices. Prior to this role, Chomani served as an Epitaxial Materials Research Scientist at Minerva Engineering, focusing on SiGe metamorphic materials for quantum computing, and optimized growth processes for strained Ge quantum wells. Chomani's experience also includes significant postdoctoral research at the University of Oklahoma, where work involved the development of IV-VI epitaxy for Thermo-Photo Voltaic devices and III-V materials growth. Chomani holds a Ph.D. in Physics and has an extensive background in epitaxial growth processes and materials characterization, alongside a strong academic foundation in physics from the University of Oklahoma and University of Peradeniya.
