Hagen Schmidt

Hagen Schmidt (Member, IEEE) received the Diploma degree in electronics and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the Dresden University of Technology (TUD), Dresden, Germany, in 1992 and 2005, respectively. He was with the Central Research Division, Robert Bosch GmbH, Stuttgart, Germany, and also with Vectron International GmbH, Teltow, Germany. In 1996, he joined the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research, Dresden, where he is currently involved in the research on surface dynamics. Since its foundation in 2013, he has been the Co-Leader of SAWLab Saxony, Dresden. His current research interests include surface acoustic wave (SAW)-based sensors and actuators, e.g., for harsh environments and acoustofluidics, respectively, as well as high-precision microacoustic characterization of crystalline materials and thin-film systems.
