Mathias Schubert received Dipl.-Phys., Dr. rer. nat., and Dr. habil. (Physics) degrees from the University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany, in 1994, 1997, and 2003, respectively. He became associate professor and full professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, USA, in 2005 and 2012, respectively. From 2016 to 2020 he was appointed IPF Fellow of the Leibniz Institut fuer Polymerforschung Dresden. He received a Dr. tech. h.c. from Linkoping University, Sweden, in 2015. From 2016 to 2022 Mathias was appointed as SFO AFM guest professor at Linkoping University. Since 2017 Mathias holds the J.A. Woollam Distinguished Professorship Chair. In the period 08/2023-06/2024 he was a WACQT guest professor at the physics department of Lund University. His research interests cover development of methods and instrumentation for advanced ellipsometry spectroscopy, in-situ, and imaging techniques such as generalized ellipsometry for optical Hall effect and Terahertz electron spin resonance ellipsometry investigations, studying advanced semiconductors and functional materials, nanocomposites, optoelectronic devices, conductive organics, and low-symmetry materials. His team receives funding from the National Science Foundation, the Air Force Office of Scientific Research, the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation of Sweden, and the J. A. Woollam Foundation among others. He also serves as Commissioning Editor of Applied Physics Letters. From 2010 to 2017 Mathias lead the Center for Nanohybdrid Functional Materials funded by a $20Mill Infrastructure award from the National Science Foundation. Since 2006 Mathias leads the Conplex Materials Optics network at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
