Heyman's research focuses on experimental condensed matter and semiconductor
physics. 

He has established a laboratory on campus to study optical properties of quantum wells
and nanostructures, which are so small that their electronic and optical properties have
to be described in quantum mechanics. He has also started a research program on ultrafast
processes in semiconductors. 

EDUCATION: A.B., Williams College Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley 

Heyman has been teaching at Macalester since 1994.
