Vinod Kumar Khanna received the Ph.D. degree in physics from
Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra (Haryana), India, in 1988. From
1977 to 1979, he was a Research Assistant with the Physics
Department, Lucknow University. He joined the solid-state devices
division of Council of Scientific and Industrial Research
(CSIR)–Central Electronics Engineering Research Institute (CEERI),
Pilani in April, 1980. During his tenure of more than 34 years of
service at CSIR-CEERI, he worked on various research and
development projects on thin-film aluminum oxide humidity sensor,
power semiconductor devices (high-current and high-voltage
rectifier, high-voltage TV deflection transistor, power Darlington
transistor, fast switching thyristor, power DMOSFET and IGBT), PIN
diode neutron dosimeter and PMOSFET gamma ray dosimeter,
ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET), microheater-embedded
gas sensor, capacitive MEMS ultrasonic transducer, and other MEMS
devices. He superannuated in November 2014 as Chief Scientist &
Head, MEMS & Microsensors Group, and Professor, AcSIR (Academy of
Scientific & Innovative Research). Presently, he is working as an
Emeritus Scientist, CSIR and Emeritus Professor, AcSIR. His
research interests are micro- and nanosensors, and power
semiconductor devices. He is a fellow of the Institution of
Electronics & Telecommunication Engineers (IETE), India. He is a
life member of Indian Physics Association (IPA), Semiconductor
Society (India), and Indo-French Technical Association (IFTA).
Dr. Khanna has published 8 previous books, 6 chapters in edited
books, and 175 research papers in national/international journals
and conference proceedings; he holds two US and two Indian patents.
