Biography

Luke Middelburg was born in De Lier, The Netherlands, in 1993. He received the B.E. degree in Electrical Engineering in 2014 and the Master degree in Microelectronics in 2016, both at Delft University of Technology. In 2015 he joined the department of Electronic Instrumentation to work on the Ford Poling Challenge in the framework of the master thesis work. Currently he is working in the department of Electronic Components, Technology and Materials (ECTM) in the Else Kooi Laboratory, in the group of professor Kouchi Zhang. His main research topics are Wide Bandgap Semiconductor Sensors, harsh environment sensing and health monitoring.
