Richard L. Greene (born 1938) is an American physicist. He is a distinguished university professor of Physics at the University of Maryland. He is known for his experimental research related to novel superconducting and magnetic materials.

Career

[edit]

Greene served in the Navy at the San Francisco Naval Shipyard where he was an officer in charge of the construction of the USS Halsey (DLG 23). He was awarded a PhD at Stanford University, where he and his collaborators discovered the first optical signatures of spin waves in insulating antiferromagnetic materials.[1] As a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford he and his collaborators invented the thermal relaxation method for measuring the specific heat of small samples, a technique now widely used commercially in the Quantum Design Physical Properties Measurement System.[2] In 1970 he became a staff member (and later a group manager) at the IBM Research Laboratory in San Jose, CA where he and collaborators discovered the first known polymeric and two-dimensional organic superconductors.[3][4][5] In 1989 he became a physics professor and founding director of the Center for Superconductivity Research at the University of Maryland in College Park. His group has made significant contributions to the physics of high temperature superconductors and novel magnetic and topological materials.[6][7][8] His over 400 publications are cited over 33,000 times with an h-index of 96. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.[9] The American Physical Society Dissertation Award for Experiential Condensed Matter Physics is named in his honor.[10]
