John Lambropoulos, LLE Senior Scientist and University Professor and Chair, Department of Mechanical Engineering, has been awarded the 2018 Goergen Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching. At LLE, he has studied the optimization of optics manufacturing techniques and developed experimental techniques to measure the thermal conductivity of thin films and has also expanded on models to correlate thin-film thermal conductivity with the film microstructure. In addition, he has participated as speaker and advisor in LLE’s high school program. Shown is his seminar to high school students entitled Glass Fracture, Starting with Galileo.
