David Tománek (born July 1954) is a U.S.-Swiss physicist of Czech origin and researcher in

two-dimensional materials including phosphorene.[4][5]

Academic career

Tománek earned a

Freie Universität Berlin in 1983 under the supervision of Karl Heinz Bennemann and became Hochschulassistent there in 1984.[6] Between 1985 and 1987 he worked as postdoctoral researcher at the Bell Labs[6] under the supervision of Michael A. Schlüter and at the University of California, Berkeley under the supervision of Steven G. Louie. Since 1987, he has been Professor of Physics at Michigan State University, where he directs the Computational Nanotechnology Laboratory[7] at the Department of Physics and Astronomy.[8][6]
