Biography

Amir Sammak was born in Tehran in 1983. In 2005, He received his B.Sc. and M.Sc degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Tehran, Iran in 2005 and 2007, respectively. During his M.S.c, He has been investigating the fabrication of high-aspect-ratio submicron and nanowire structures. In March 2008, he joined the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands where he is currently working toward the Ph.D. degree. His current research concerns the Epitaxial growth and integration of III-V materials on Silicon substrate.
