In 1988 she received the Ph. D. degree from Humboldt University, Berlin,
Germany. From 1988 to 1991 she was with the Central Institute of
Electron Physics, Berlin, where she investigated electrode phenomena of
vacuum arcs and gaseous arcs. Since 1992 she has been with the Lawrence
Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), Berkeley, California.
She carried out research in the field of vacuum arc ion and plasma sources,
materials modification by plasma and ion beam techniques, and thin film
deposition by plasma techniques. Currently she is working at the
Advanced Light Source of LBNL, and is involved in the application of synchrotron
radiation to materials science, in particular photoemission electron microscopy.
