André Anders studied physics in Wroclaw, Poland, and Berlin,
Germany. He specialized in plasma physics at Moscow State University,
Russia. He holds a MS degree ('84) and Ph.D. degree ('87) in physics
from Humboldt University, Berlin, Germany. As a Staff Physicist at
the Central Institute of Electron Physics, Berlin, he investigated electrode
phenomena of arcs in gases and vacuum (1987-1991). Since 1992 he
has been with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California.
His field of research includes vacuum arc plasma and ion sources, gas plasma
sources, ion implantation, plasma immersion ion implantation, thin film
synthesis, and pseudosparks. He is the author of A Formulary for
Plasma Physics (Akademie, Berlin, 1990) and more than 100 scientific papers.
He was one of the Chairs of the XVIIth ISDEIV, Berkleley 1996, and a Guest
