Early life and education

edit

Seidman was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1938. He attended Brooklyn Technical High School, graduating with honors in 1956. Seidman earned his Bachelor of Science in Physical Metallurgy and Physics from New York University in 1960 and his Master of Science in Physical Metallurgy in 1962. He completed his Ph.D. in Physical Metallurgy and Physics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 1965 under the mentorship of Robert W. Balluffi,[4] focusing on atomic defects in metals.[5]

Academic career

edit

Seidman's academic career began at Cornell University, where he served as a professor of materials science and engineering. During his tenure, he initiated the use of field-ion microscopy in January 1966 to study point defects in quenched or irradiated materials. He also constructed the first ultrahigh vacuum atom-probe field-ion microscope that was entirely computer-controlled[5]

In 1985, Seidman joined Northwestern University as a professor of materials science and engineering. He was appointed the Walter P. Murphy Professor in 1996. At Northwestern, he founded NUCAPT[2], which has become a leading center for atom-probe tomography research.[3] Over his career, Seidman has mentored 55 Ph.D. students and 53 postdoctoral researchers, many of whom have gone on to leading positions in academia and industry. His laboratory also welcomes undergraduate and high school students, with a focus on engaging underrepresented groups in science.

Awards and honors

edit

Seidman has been recognized extensively for his contributions to materials science and engineering. In 2018, he was elected to the National Academy of Engineering[1], one of the highest professional distinctions for engineers. He is also a Fellow of numerous prestigious organizations, including the American Academy of Arts & Sciences (2010), the American Physical Society (Condensed Matter Physics Division, 1984), ASM International (2005), the Materials Research Society (2010), and TMS (Minerals, Metals & Materials Society, 1997). In 2016, he was named to the inaugural class of Fellows of the International Field-Emission Society. Seidman was also a two-time Fellow of the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation (1972–73, 1980–81) and was named an Honorary Member of the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers in 2014[3]. Seidman has received numerous awards throughout his career, including[3][6]:

  • Robert Lansing Hardy Gold Medal (TMS, 1966)
  • Albert Sauveur Achievement Award (ASM International, 2006)
  • Gold Medal (ASM International, 2019)
  • David Turnbull Lecturer Award (Materials Research Society, 2008)
  • Distinguished Scientist Award in Physical Sciences (Microscopy Society of America, 2020)
  • Alexander von Humboldt Stiftung Prize (1989, 1992)
  • Max Planck Research Prize, jointly awarded with Professor Peter Haasen (1993)
  • Robert Franklin Mehl Medal (TMS, 2011)

Additionally, his research from 1968 to 1977 was rated among the top twenty most highly rated major achievements sponsored by the National Science Foundation in materials science, as identified by a MITRE evaluative study of Materials Research Laboratory Programs. He also received the National Science Foundation Creativity Extension Award (2001–2003) and an IBM Faculty Research Award (2010–2011). In February 2009, Seidman was honored with a two-and-a-half-day symposium at the annual TMS meeting in San Francisco, California. From 2011 to 2012, he served as a Sackler Lecturer at the Mortimer and Raymond Sackler Institute of Advanced Studies at Tel Aviv University.

Research

edit

Seidman has authored over 500 high-impact peer-reviewed publications[7] focusing on the atomic-scale study of materials. His research enables advancements in applications such as nanotechnology, additive manufacturing, quantum computing, alternative green energy solutions, and structural materials for aerospace, automotive, and defense industries.

Professional roles

edit

Seidman served as editor-in-chief and a member of the editorial boards for leading journals, including Interface Science, the MRS Bulletin, Materials Today and Materials Research Letters. He was also President of the International Field-Emission Society from 2000 to 2002[15]. He is founder and director of the Northwestern University Center for Atom-Probe Tomography (NUCAPT) and a co-founder of NanoAl LLC[16], a startup specializing in advanced aluminum alloys, which was later acquired by Braidy Industries.

He is also a member of the International Advisory Board of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Tel Aviv University. Seidman held several visiting professorships at prominent institutions worldwide, including:

Legacy and impact

edit

Seidman's innovations in materials characterization, particularly through atom-probe tomography, have had profound implications across industries, from aerospace to nanotechnology. His mentorship and leadership continue to influence future generations of scientists and engineers. Seidman is the director of the Northwestern University Center for Atom-Probe Tomography (NUCAPT)[2], which is a core facility of Northwestern University[19] and the National Science Foundation funded Materials Research Science and Engineering Center[20]. NUCAPT was founded during the summer of 2004 and has been operational on a full-time basis since late December 2004. It is a completely open facility for all researchers internal and external to Northwestern University and it has attracted researchers from universities and national laboratories in the US as well as researchers from around the world. NUCAPT is constantly improving its infrastructure as well as developing new techniques for analyzing the data collected using the local-electrode atom-probe (LEAP) tomograph[21] on which NUCAPT is based. NUCAPT upgraded the LEAP4000 to the cutting-edge LEAP 5000XS (Cameca, Madison Wisconsin)[22], which combines new flight path technology with enhanced detector performance to offer an improved field-of-view while achieving unprecedented detection efficiency of about 80%, the highest of any such analytical technique. This is a unique facility at Northwestern and the US, which has attracted a significant number of professors to explore new avenues of research based on the use of the LEAP tomograph as well as researchers from other universities and national laboratories, Argonne National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
