Scott Butcher (also known as Kenneth Scott Butcher) graduated his B Appl. Sci (Physics - Hons) from the University of Technology, Sydney in 1986. He worked at the University of New South Wales in the fields of Biophysics, Biomedicine and Solid State Physics for four years before joining the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO). At ANSTO Scott concentrated on semiconductor radiation detector fabrication; GaAs epitaxial growth and semiconductor materials evaluation. Later as a contractor this work continued under the umbrella of High Energy Physics. In 1998 Scott received his Ph.D. from Macquarie University with a Dean's Commendation. For his thesis entitled "Aluminium Nitride Thin Films Grown on Damage Susceptible Semiconductors" he was a finalist for the National 1998 Bragg Medal, for excellence in a Physics based thesis. Despite brief divergences into the semiconductor processing industry and into the radiation metrology community, Scott's interest in semiconductor based research and detector technology have continued and have been strengthened with the present Research Fellowship at Macquarie. |
