Frank Galeener, guest editor for this issue of the MRS BULLETIN, recently joined Colorado State University as professor of physics. His appointment followed 17 years of industrial research at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, where he was manager of the Amorphous and Crystalline Semiconductors Research Area and principal scientist. His degrees in physics include a BS and MS from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a PhD from Purdue University. While on the staff of the MIT Lincoln and National Magnet Laboratories he pursued experimental studies of magnetooptical properties of crystalline III–V semiconductors, the subject of his theoretical thesis at Purdue.
Galeener’s current interests focus on basic questions of disorder in solids, with emphasis on the network and defect structure, and elementary excitations of glassy materials. Over the last several years his research has involved Raman, infrared, inelastic neutron, and ESR spectroscopies.
Galeener is the author or co-author of over 90 technical papers, and the co-editor of three conference proceedings covering amorphous semiconductors and insulators. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and has served on several government advisory panels and conference organization committees. A member of the Materials Research Society, he was a symposium organizer/book editor for the symposium on Defects in Glasses at the 1985 MRS Fall Meeting.
