Holger Schmidt's Biography



Holger Schmidt, Narinder Kapany Professor of Electrical Engineering, University of California-Santa Cruz

Holger Schmidt received the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering from the University of California Santa Barbara and served as a Postdoctoral Fellow at M.I.T. He is currently the Narinder Kapany Chair of Optoelectronics and Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC Santa Cruz. He directs the W.M. Keck Center for Nanoscale Optofluidics and has served as the Associate Dean for Research in the Baskin School of Engineering. His research interests cover a broad range in photonics and integrated optics, including optofluidic devices, nanopore sensors, nano-magneto-optics, spintronic devices, and ultrafast optics. He has authored more than 400 publications, several book chapters, and co-edited the CRC Handbook of Optofluidics. He is a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors, the IEEE and the Optical Society of America. He received an NSF Career Award, a Keck Futures Nanotechnology Award, and the Engineering Achievement Award by the IEEE Photonics Society.

In recent years, single molecule analysis has gained increasing importance for next-generation medical diagnostics. Among the leading approaches are optical fluorescence detection and electrical analysis of ionic current across nanopores. I will discuss an integrated platform that can combine both approaches in a single chip. Design and applications of these electro-optofluidic chips will be discussed. These include multiplex detection of multiple molecular biomarkers, dual-mode detection of single viruses, and feedback controlled gating of a nanopore for on-demand delivery and selection of biomolecules for chip-based analysis. The advanced level of electrical, optical, and fluidic integration is ideal for point-of-care applications.
