He belongs to the pioneers of surface physics and thin film physics. He studied physics at the Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich. He graduated in 1953 and obtained doctorate in 1955. In 1958 he developed the classification of three mechanisms of growth of thin films that he called the Frank-van der Merwe growth (layer-by-layer growth), the Volmer-Weber growth (island growth), and the Stranski-Krastanov growth (layer + island). This gave rise to the thermodynamic theory of epitaxy used to this day to describe this phenomenon. In 1958 he left for the United States where he headed the Crystal Growth Laboratory at the Michelson Laboratory in China Lake, California. He then assumed American citizenship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1969 he returned to Germany, became professor and director of the Institute of Physics at the Clausthal University of Technology. In 1991 he began cooperation with the Arizona State University. He worked on the low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) technique which led to the development of the LEEM microscope. He then broadened the scope of the LEEM technique by two new surface imaging methods: spin-polarized low-energy electron microscopy (SPLEEM) and spectroscopic photoemission and low-energy electron microscopy (SPELEEM). Combining those methods allows to precisely characterise (structurally, chemically, magnetically, and electronically) surfaces and thin films on the size scale of 10 nm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile tekst-zdjecie-pion tekst-zdjecie-pion-p\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sh\u016bji Nakamura<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>(born in 1954)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>25 March 2015 &#8211; resolution of the Senate UWr\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>17 September 2015 &#8211; promotion ceremony<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Promoter: prof. dr hab.
