Notre Dame Electrical Engineering welcomes semiconductor expert Marko Radosavljević to faculty

Marko Radosavljevic

The University of Notre Dame’s College of Engineering welcomed Marko Radosavljević to its Department of Electrical Engineering this spring, expanding its expertise in semiconductor technology.

Radosavljević is a recognized expert in non-silicon materials and transistors, including carbon nanotubes and gallium nitride, for applications in logic and power delivery. He aims to create electronics that are faster, more powerful, and more energy-efficient by harnessing the unique properties of different materials. 

“Marko joins us after a distinguished career of 22 years at Intel Corporation,” said Gregory Snider, Robert W. and Alice M. Bauchman Professor in Engineering and Chair. “He brings to Notre Dame a deep understanding of electronic devices at the fundamental physics and materials level as well as at the systems level.”

Radosavljević earned his doctorate in physics from the University of Pennsylvania in 2001 before spending two years as a postdoctoral researcher at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center. He joined Intel Corp. in 2003, where he received two Intel Achievement Awards—the company’s highest technical honor. 

A senior member of the IEEE, he currently serves as an editor for IEEE Transactions on Materials for Electron Devices. He holds numerous patents and has authored highly cited research, including a VLSI “test of time” award-winning paper.
