Background
Henry H. Radamson received an M.Sc. degree in physics and the Ph.D. degree in semiconductor materials from
Linköping University in Sweden, in 1989 and 1996, respectively. From 1982 to 1992 he was employed by the networking company
Ericsson
(lit. "Telephone Stock Company of LM Ericsson"), commonly known as Ericsson, is a Swedish multinational networking and telecommunications company headquartered in Stockholm. The company sells infrastructure, software, and services in informat ...
. In 1997, he joined the

in Stockholm as a senior scientist, where he has been an Associate Professor 2001-2016. He was appointed a professor of the
Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2016. Radamson has been also a visiting professor at
Mid Sweden University since 2018.
He was awarded International Innovation Award by
SIQ
The Siq ( ar, السيق, transliterated ''al-Sīq'', transcribed ''as-Sīq'', literally 'the Shaft') is the main entrance to the ancient Nabatean city of Petra in southern Jordan. Also known as Siqit, it is a dim, narrow gorge (in some points ...
, the Swedish Institute for Quality in 2018. He co-founded a hi-tech spin-off in the course of his professorship at KTH. where he is mainly focused on silicon/silicon germanium devices and process technology for MOSFETs, HBTs, and thermal sensors.
Career and media coverage
His work on semiconductors with potential application in hi-tech future devices and corresponding recognition have been extensively covered in Swedish media. Radamson's breakthrough research such as the manufacturing of Tensile-strained germanium on insulator has been also covered by Chinese media.
Scholarly contribution
In addition to publication of more than 200 scholarly articles, that were cited by +1700 other research work, he authored the book 'Monolithic Nanoscale Photonics-Electronics Integration in Silicon and Other Group IV Elements' published by
Elsevier Science in 2014, later turned to be a standard text within the field. He also co-authored the book 'CMOS Past, Present and Future' published by
Elsevier Science in 2018.
Radamson is a member of the editorial board of journals and scientific board of conferences within electronic science and technology including
Journal of Electronic Materials.
