Hellmut Fritzsche (20 February 1927 – June 17, 2018) was an American physicist. He came to the US on a one-year Smith-Mundt fellowship in 1950/51. After receiving his Diplom in physics from the University of Göttingen in 1952 he returned to the US. He earned his Ph.D. from Purdue University in 1954 where in the same year he became Instructor and in 1955 Assistant Professor. In 1957 he moved to the University of Chicago, where in 1963 he became a full professor and in 1996 retired. During his career at the University of Chicago he was director of its Materials Research laboratory 1973–77 and chairman of its Physics department 1977–86. During his chairmanship he planned and oversaw the building of the Kersten Physics Teaching Center. For twenty five years Fritzsche served on the University o

  • Hellmut Fritzsche (* 20. Februar 1927 in Berlin; † 17. Juni 2018) war ein deutsch-US-amerikanischer Festkörperphysiker. Fritzsche ging nach dem Diplom an der Universität Göttingen 1952 in die USA. 1954 wurde er an der Purdue University promoviert, wo er im selben Jahr Instructor und 1955 Assistant Professor wurde. 1957 ging er als Assistant Professor an die University of Chicago, wo er 1963 Professor wurde und das bis zu seiner Emeritierung 2004 blieb. Zeitweise war er Vorstand der Physik-Fakultät. Fritzsche ist bekannt für Arbeiten über den Metall-Isolator-Übergang in dotierten Halbleitern und über amorphe (nicht-kristalline) Materialien, zum Beispiel amorphem Silizium und insbesondere zur Rolle von eingebautem Wasserstoff in der Verbesserung von dessen elektronischen Eigenschaften. Ab 1967 war er Vizepräsident und Mitglied des Leitungsrats von Energy Conversion Devices Incorporated, der Entwicklungsfirma (zum Beispiel Solarzellen, Batterien) von Stanford Ovshinsky, mit dem er eng über die Anwendung amorpher Materialien zusammenarbeitete. 1989 erhielt er den Oliver E. Buckley Condensed Matter Prize. 1988 wurde er Ehrendoktor der Purdue University. 2004 erhielt er den Stanford R. Ovshinsky Award for Excellence in Non-Crystalline Chalcogenides (de)
