Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Optics
  • Refractive index
  • Optoelectronics

His primary areas of investigation include Optoelectronics, Optics, Aperture, Collimated light and Light-emitting diode. The concepts of his Optoelectronics study are interwoven with issues in Light beam, Luminance, Envelope and Light source. His study in the field of Reflector also crosses realms of Solid-state.

His research in Total internal reflection, Ray, Waveguide, Backlight and Wavelength are components of Optics. His work deals with themes such as Substrate, Photomask and Opacity, which intersect with Collimated light. His work on Light extraction in LEDs as part of his general Light-emitting diode study is frequently connected to Annealing, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Backlighting apparatus employing an array of microprisms (341 citations)
  • Illumination system employing an array of microprisms (208 citations)
  • Process for making an array of tapered photopolymerized waveguides (175 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Optoelectronics, Optics, Light-emitting diode, Light source and Layer are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Electrical conductor and Substrate as well as Optoelectronics. His Optics study focuses mostly on Brightness, Ray, Collimated light, Aperture and Waveguide.

His Light-emitting diode research incorporates elements of Semiconductor structure, Reflectivity and Epitaxy. His work in the fields of Light source, such as Reflector, intersects with other areas such as Heat sink. His Layer research integrates issues from Electronic engineering, Doping and Semiconductor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Optoelectronics (71.93%)
  • Optics (64.04%)
  • Light-emitting diode (34.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2016)?

  • Optoelectronics (71.93%)
  • Solid-state (7.89%)
  • Electrical conductor (12.28%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Optoelectronics, Solid-state, Electrical conductor, Light-emitting diode and Optics. Scott M. Zimmerman has researched Optoelectronics in several fields, including Semiconductor device and Light source. His research integrates issues of Layer, Substrate and Planar substrate in his study of Electrical conductor.

When carried out as part of a general Optics research project, his work on Wavelength is frequently linked to work in Heat sink, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Light extraction in LEDs study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Optical radiation, Thin film, Dichroic glass, Dichroic filter and Junction temperature. His work carried out in the field of Wavelength conversion brings together such families of science as Light beam, Thermal conductivity and Common emitter.

Between 2010 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Fixtures for large area directional and isotropic solid state lighting panels (117 citations)
  • Lighting systems with heat extracting light emitting elements (42 citations)
  • Solid state light sources based on thermally conductive luminescent elements containing interconnects (34 citations)
