Dr. Linda Posadas is recognized of her researches in physics specifically in the field of semiconductor lasers, a field with extensive technological and practical applications. Dr. Posadas is one of the few physicists who have worked on both theoretical (Mathematics) topics, like Clifford algebra formalisms, and experimental (practical) problems, such as semiconductor lasers. Her works are published in the internationally acclaimed IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics and have been presented in international conferences.
