British physicist and former professor
Colin Edward Webb MBE FRS FInstP [2] University of Oxford , specialising in lasers .
Education [ edit ]
Webb was educated at the University of Nottingham (BSc) and Oriel College, Oxford (DPhil).
After working at Bell Labs in Murray Hill, New Jersey , Webb returned to Oxford as a research fellow in physics at the Clarendon Laboratory in 1968, and was appointed to a university lectureship in 1971, becoming reader in 1990 and professor in 1992. He served as head of Atomic and Laser Physics from 1995 to 1999, and became an emeritus professor in 2002. Jesus College, Oxford appointed him to a Fellowship in 1973; he became a senior research fellow in 1988 and an emeritus fellow in 2005. Webb has supervised more than 35 DPhil students.[3] [3]
Research [ edit ]
Webb is considered a pioneer in British laser research and has made significant contributions in the areas of hollow cathode metal-vapor lasers,[4] [5] copper vapor lasers ,[6] dye lasers ,[6] excimer lasers .[7] [4] [8]
His publications include (as editor in chief) Handbook of Laser Technology and Applications (2003) as well as various papers on lasers and laser mechanisms in academic journals[9] [6] [10]
Awards and honours [ edit ]
Webb was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire in 2000. He was awarded the Duddell Medal and Prize (now called the Gabor Medal and Prize) in 1985 by the Institute of Physics and delivered the Paterson Lecture of the Royal Society in 1999.[9] Richard Glazebrook Medal and Prize in 2001.
He is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America [citation needed and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 1991 [2] Fellow of the Institute of Physics .
