Augustinas Galeckas was born in Vilnius, Lithuania, in 1960.
He has graduated from Vilnius University with diploma of Physicist and Physics teacher in 1984 and started research work in the field of ultra-fast phenomena in semiconductors at Vilnius University’s research laboratory.
Since then, he took positions as an Engineer and Research assistant at the Division of Picosecond Photonics.
In 1995, he received the Ph.D. degree in Physics from Vilnius University.
Currently, he holds position of Research Fellow at the Institute of Material Research and Applied Sciences, Vilnius University.
In 1993, he has participated in EU Scientist Mobility Program as a Visiting Scholar at Jena University, Germany.
Since 1996, he is within the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden, as a Post-Doctoral-Fellow and Senior Researcher.
He has authored more than 30 articles and over 40 conference contributions.
His specialties include studies of nonequilibrium processes and near-to-surface properties of group IV semiconductors, layered and reduced-dimension structures applying techniques of transient reflectometry, absorption and surface second-harmonic-generation.
