Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter

Editorial board

Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter is led by an Executive Board comprising of the Editor-in-Chief and ten Executive Board Members, who oversee the wider Editorial Board.

Editor-in-Chief

Peter A Dowben University of Nebraska at Lincoln, USA

Prof. Peter Dowben is a Charles Bessey Professor of Physics at the University of Nebraska (UNL). From 1984-1993 he was a member of the physics faculty at Syracuse University. He moved to the University of Nebraska in 1993 and was promoted to Professor of Physics in 1995, Research Professor of Chemistry in 1994, becoming a Charles Bessey Professor 2002. He performed his post-doctoral research as a scientific staff member at the Fritz Haber Institute in Berlin, Germany under the supervision of Professor Michael Grunze. He received this Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Cambridge, under the direction of Dr. Lionel Clarke. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society, a Fellow of the Institute of Physics, a Fellow of the American Vacuum Society and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry. Peter Dowben’ research goup has been has been very interested in metallicity, particularly the surface nonmetal to metal transition. His group also investigates boundary (surface) polarization exploiting spin-polarized inverse photoemission and is known for using angle resolved XPS for the study of boundary and surface segregation. He his research centers on the surface ferroelectric transition, molecular multiferroic systems, and boundary spin polarization in magneto-electric materials. His research group combines band structure measurements of both the valence band and conduction band.
