    January 2012: The group is founded at Liverpool with one PhD student, Andrzej Stącel.

Introduction

Prof Tim Veal leads the Semiconductor Material Physics research within the Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy at the University of Liverpool. After an MPhys in Mathematics and Physics (1998) and PhD in Semiconductor Surface Electronic Properties at the University of Warwick (2002), he developed research in indium nitride and antimonides as a postdoc at Warwick. He gained an EPSRC Career Acceleration Fellowship (2008-2014) to work on Nitride Photovoltaic Materials for Full Spectrum Utilization before moving to the University of Liverpool as Reader in the Department of Physics in January 2012 and being promoted to Professor in October 2017.
