About the author
Christos Christopoulos received the Diploma in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens in 1969 and the MSc and DPhil from the University of Sussex in 1979 and 1974 respectively. In 1974 he joined the Arc Research Project of the University of Liverpool and spent two years working on vacuum arcs and breakdown while on attachments at the UKAEA Culham Laboratory. In 1976 he joined the University of Durham as a Senior Demonstrator in Electrical Engineering Science. In October 1978 he joined the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Nottingham, was promoted to Professor of Electrical Engineering in 1990 and became the Director of the George Green Institute for Electromagnetics Research (GGIEMR) in 2001. He is now Emeritus Professor in Electrical Engineering.
