Summary

Dr. Malloy is a Professor in the Department of Physics & Astronomy and the Center for High Technology Materials (CHTM) at UNM. He has been a faculty member at UNM since 1990 and was a former Associate Dean for Research in UNM’s School of Engineering. He received the UNM School of Engineering’s Research Excellence Award in 1994 and the Teaching Excellence Award in 1996.

Dr. Malloy’s research interests include the materials science of nanostructures, nanophotonics, and unusual implications of the Kramers-Krönig relation. He also teaches courses in semiconductor physics and devices. He holds three patents and is a member of the IEEE Electron Devices Society and the Quantum Electronics Society.

He was a co-founder of start-up Zia Laser, Inc., in 2001 and is currently working on the formation of a new start-up company based on his thin-film, heat-switching technology. The technology was the recipient of gap funding last year from STC’s gap-fund program.

Dr. Malloy received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Notre Dame and his M.S. and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University.
