R&D Scientist, Technical Team Leader, Scientific Writer | PVD Thin Film Technology Engineer | Systems/Test Engineering

Profile Summary

Thin film engineer with 20 years of experience with focus on PVD techniques, epitaxial growth, thin film characterization and microfabrication; Technical Team Lead, Scientific Writer (author of winning proposals, scientific publications) of 10+ years specialized in R&D project management, educated in Physics and Materials Engineering. • Headed development of novel X-ray imaging scintillator screen from concept to commercialization Highly hygroscopic, high-speed (28 ns), green emitter coating of LuI3:Ce and hermetic packaging process have been developed resulting in uniformly coated 2” screens for hard X-ray microtomography with an 8 µm peak resolution at 50 keV. The effort resulted in imaging screens that reduced data acquisition time for lengthy microtomography scans by a factor of 4 • Responsible for the strategic planning, acquisition and setup of a new halide scintillator manufacturing unit, coordinated design of the associated lab facility as well as created standard operation protocols • Managed team projects built and coordinated external and internal collaborative efforts in the framework of selected projects • Systems and test engineering role for new water quality analyzer product development • Development of a new class of solid state, electrochemical pH sensors to monitor process and cell culture fitness along with point-of-use, disposable pH sensing applications • Reagent-free optical water quality analyzer prototyping using ML predictive analytics • Supporting IP generation by interfacing R&D activities and corporate IP department • Fabricated and characterized nanostructured radiation hard CMOS devices based on nanocrystalline ZnO • Designed, synthesized and patented corrosion resistant optical coatings for high power density laser optics/window applications • Developed various novel scintillating thin/thick film by electron beam and thermal evaporation coating processes that enabled high efficiency and high-resolution X-ray (Lu2O3:Eu) and neutron imaging (GdI3:Ce) • Used SEM/EDS for scintillator microstructure imaging and elemental analysis • Presented technical papers at conferences and meetings • Proficient at writing research proposals (SBIR), articles and technical reports
