Dr. James A. Hutchby
Jim is currently Director of Nanostructures and Integration Sciences with the Semiconductor Research Corporation. In this position, Jim is supporting university programs addressing Advanced Devices and Technologies, Packaging and Interconnect and Factory Sciences. Activities in ADT comprehend research in both advanced and tradition CMOS structures and technologies, modeling and simulation (TCAD) programs, and novel device programs. Activities in Packaging and Interconnect comprehend materials, systems and modeling/simulation work related to a variety of new Ball Grid Array Flip Chip packaging technologies. The P&I research also includes new systems and strategies for providing global interconnect (Inter and Intra-chip) of clock, signal, power and ground. The Factory Sciences activities are focused on factory operations modeling and simulation.
Prior to joining SRC, Jim was the Director of the Center for Semiconductor Research at the Research Triangle Institute. The work in CSR included research related to 1) High power RF plasma deposition of diamond and low-power, low-temperature and low-damage RF plasma, deposition of silicon-based materials for microelectronic and display applications, 2) high- efficiency, multijunction photovotaics, 3) high-frequency (mm-wave) heterojunction bipolar transistors and circuits, 4) thin-film superlattice themoelectrics, and 5) organometalic vapor phase epitaxial growth technologies. Customers of CSR included many U.S. Government agencies and over 40 companies.
Jim has published over 100 contributed and invited papers in scientific journals and conferences, and was a member of the IEEE Electron Devices Society Advisory Committee for two terms (6-years). He has also served as the General Chair and Technical Program Chair of numerous conferences, including the IEEE IEDM, GaAs IC Symposium, and the Workshop on Compound Semiconductor Materials and Devices. He has also served on the Program Committees in various capacities on the IEEE Cornell Advanced Microelectronics Conference, International GaAs Manufacturing Technology Conference, and the IEEE Photovoltaics Conference. |
