Regina Soufli is a Greek-American physicist and a staff scientist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, in Livermore, California, where she works on the development and the characterization of materials and thin-film coatings for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and X-ray applications. The results of her work is the heart of the reflective optics used in EUV lithography, the next-generation in semiconductor manufacturing technology, in satellites such as NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, or on optics for Free-electron lasers such as the Linac Coherent Light Source at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.

Career[edit]

Soufli earned her PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, studying the optical Constants of materials in the EUV/Soft X-ray Region for multilayer mirror Applications under the supervision of David Attwood Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory , after initially completing an undergraduate degree at the National Technical University of Athens in Greece.[1] After her PhD, she joined the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian in 1997 to work on the optics of the Chandra X-ray Observatory. She then joined Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in 1999 as a staff scientist.

Soufli is a fellow of the Optical Society of America[2] and a senior member of the SPIE.[3]
