Hartwig is interested in special relativity and carried out experiments showing that the relativistic transverse Doppler shift and, hence, time dilation effects are absent. His teaching activities included basic electromagnetism, semiconductor devices and circuits, opto-electronics, wave propagation and relativity.  '''Education'''

1941 - 1946 Elementary school in Linz, Austria <br />1946 - 1954 High school (Gymnasium) in Linz, Austria <br />1954 - 1960 Diplom Ingenieur degree in Electrical Engineering from Technical University of Vienna, Austria <br />1960 - 1964 Doctor of Technical Sciences degree from Technical University of Vienna, Austria

==Employment==

1960 - 1964 Assistant Professor at the Theoretical Electrical Engineering Institute of the Technical University of Vienna, Austria <br />1964 - 1969 Solid State Devices Department at Bell Telephone Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey, USA <br />1969&nbsp;- 1974 Head of the Microwave Physics Department of the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Solid State Physics, Freiburg, Germany <br />1974 - 1985 Full Professor and head of the Industrial Electronics Institute at the Technical University of Vienna, Austria <br />1985 - 2003 Full Professor and head of the Microelectronics Institute at the Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria <br />1991 - 1993 Dean of the technical faculty <br />2003 - Professor Emeritus at the Microelectronics Institute, Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria

==Research and Teaching Activities==

Crystal growth of compound semiconductor materials, bulk semiconductor and hetero-junction devices for microwave and millimeter-wave applications, Gallium-Arsenide integrated circuits, and microwave sensors. He developed the first stable bulk semiconductor amplifier, known as the TEA (transferred electron amplifier), together with co-workers at Bell Labs. As an Emeritus Professor he is now teaching Wave Propagation and Relativity and, Why Relativity is Wrong.
