Presenters CVs:
Dr. Eric Bretschneider received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Florida in 1997. His graduate work focused on MOCVD growth of wide band gap II-VI materials for optoelectronic applications and low temperature silicon growth. His work culminated in the production of the world’s first crystalline silicon, visible MQW LED. After leaving the University of Florida, Dr. Bretschneider joined Emcore’s Electronic Materials division where he was responsible for transition and start up of MOCVD processes (InSb magneto-resistive devices, AlGaAs solar cells, AlInGaP LEDs) into an ISO 9000 manufacturing environment. At Emcore, he also pioneered development of cost of ownership models for MOCVD manufacturing. In 1998 he joined Uniroyal Optoelectronics where he was responsible for design, specification and start up of the MOCVD growth and materials characterization facilities. In 2001 he was promoted to Director of Intellectual Properties, Universities Relations and Government Contracts. At Uniroyal, he was also responsible for all radiometric and photometric characterization and analysis of LEDs and LED products, including color rendering measurements for solid-state lighting (SSL). Over the years, he has worked in all technical aspects of LED manufacturing. In late 2004, he joined Toyoda Gosei North America as an Assistant Sales Manger. Dr. Bretschneider has authored or co-authored over 30 journal papers.
Robert F. Karlicek, Jr., Ph.D.Joined Luminus Devices as Chief Scientist in January 2005. Bob brings over 25 years of experience in research, development and manufacturing of opto-electronic devices with corporations including AT&T Bell Labs, EMCORE, General Electric, Gore Photonics and Microsemi to his work. His technical experience includes epitaxial growth of high performance LEDs, advanced device fabrication and high power LED packaging, with management experience in basic R&D, development and technology outsourcing and transfer to manufacturing. He obtained his Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh and has over 40 published technical papers and 17 U.S. patents.
Chris Connery is Vice President of Monitor Market Research at DisplaySearch. He joins the company with ten years of experience in LCD computer displays, including a wide range of responsibilities in product development, line management, and marketing. He was most recently the director of marketing and product management for NEC-Mitsubishi Electronics Display where he helped establish their market-driven product, channel, and market segmentation strategies for both the NEC and Mitsubishi brands of LCD and CRT computer monitors. Chris was responsible for strategies in new large-format LCD display applications such as digital signage and flight information displays. While there, he managed products both developed internally, and outsourced from Taiwanese, Korean and Japanese manufacturers. Previously, He was the LCD monitor product line manager for the market leader, NEC Technologies, where he helped create the early LCD desktop monitor market. Before NEC Technologies, Chris served as the portable computer group product manager for Zenith Data Systems' notebook computers and related peripherals, including the first removable LCD computer displays. He began his career in the value added reseller channel with Veritechnology Electronics (Heath/Zenith), where he held positions in systems engineering and marketing support. Chris graduated from the University of Notre Dame.
