Materials Scientist Career Research and Resources

Santa Barbara Research Center

Science & Biotech - Materials Scientist - Goleta, CA

I invented a new growth process to produce stable single crystals of 65%indium 35%gallium antimonide and any other materials with widely divergent solidous-liquidous curves. I patented a purification process that doubled the yield and raised the purity of InSb to near the absolute limit. (This process can be used in other fields, such as chemical or pharmaceutical, where higher purity and reduced cycle time is important.) I...

EG&G EM

Science & Biotech - Materials Scientist - Goleta, CA

I developed synthesis / purification processes and equipment to produce ultra high purity mercuric iodide, designed and built, crystal growth furnaces. I developed the Vapor Crystal Growth (VCG) experiment that flew on Space Lab 3. I patented the direct vapor-solid synthesis of ultra pure mercuric iodide from compounds of these elements. This gave controllable higher purity synthesis than synthesis from the elements. (Thi...

Advanced Detectors

Science & Biotech - Materials Scientist - Santa Barbara, CA

I designed and constructed all specialized equipment, set-up synthesis and purification laboratories and produced hyper pure mercuric iodide containing no detectable carbon compounds. (Another process usable in other high purity fields.) I developed and designed new crystal growth furnaces. I developed a process to dope the large single crystals that we grew from this mercuric iodide.

Photon Imaging

Science & Biotech - Materials Scientist - Northridge, CA

I developed techniques and processes for ultra pure, thin, large area, uniform thickness, polycrystalline mercuric iodide (HgI2) film growth. I developed protective barrier films, and a pre-seeding process for growth of mercuric iodide on these films. I was hired to set-up their laboratory to produce mercuric iodide free of any carbon compounds.
