Who We Are
Jungsang Kim, Ph.D., President
Jungsang Kim received his Ph.D. in Physics from
Stanford University in 1999 and worked at Lucent
Technologies (now Alcatel-Lucent) on a variety of
different areas. In 2004, he joined Duke University as
an assistant Professor in the Dept of ECE and is
actively pursuing topics in Quantum Information
Science, MEMS, and novel photodetector design and
fabrication.
Felix Lu , Ph.D., Vice-President, Secretary,
Director of Microsystems Research and
Development
Felix Lu received his Ph.D. in Materials Science and
Engineering from the University of California at San
Diego in 2004, he then worked at the Boeing Satellite
Development Center in El Segundo, California in the
Technology Qualification Group under Dr. Bruce
Paine. He is currently also a visiting research scientist
in the department of electrical and computer
engineering at Duke University. His expertise are in the
areas of Si and III-V heterogeneous integration,
materials and device design, processing, fabrication,
and characterization. He currently resides in Durham,
North Carolina.
David J. Brady, Ph.D., Chief Scientist
Professor received his Ph. D. degree from Caltech in
Applied Physics. He was on the ECE faculty at the
University of Illinois from 1990-2001 prior to moving to
Duke University , where he was the founding director
of the Fitzpatrick Institute for Photonics. David J.
Brady is the Addy Family Professor of Electrical
Computer Engineering in the Pratt School of
Engineering at Duke University and Principal
Investigator for DISP. Brady was a David and Lucile
Packard Foundation Fellow from 1990-1995 and is a
Fellow of the Optical Society of America. Brady's
research focuses on computational imaging and
spectroscopy.
Scott McCain, Ph.D., Director of Optical
Systems Research and Development
Scott McCain received his Ph.D. in Electrical
Engineering in 2007 from the DISP Lab at Duke
University where he jointly develop a new class of
coded aperture spectrometers for large-area, Raman
tissue diagnostics. He worked as the lead engineer at
Blue Angel Optics from 2007 to 2008 before its
merger with Applied Quantum Technologies
performing optical design and analysis for a variety of
customers.
Robert D. Guenther, Ph.D., Director of Optics
Research
Prof. Guenther uses femtosecond pulsed laser systems
to study ultrafast phenomena. Current research
includes characterization of quantum well devices,
development of terahertz electronics, and analysis of
bunched relativistic electron beams. Because these
projects are of fundamental interest to physicists,
engineers, and material scientists, Dr. Guenther's
research involves collaboration with other
departments at Duke and other major universities. He
is presently working on the application of femtosecond
technology to the study of solids, the development of
terahertz sources, and new measurement techniques
associated with electron beams. He has used a
Michelson Interferometer to observe the temporal
characteristics of the electron-beam used in the FEL.
Robert J. Lontz., Ph.D., Chief Administrator
Dr. Robert Lontz has the unique combination of a
background in both technical development and
entrepreneurial leadership. He has founded and
co-founded several companies since his retirement
from ARO in 1988.
Dr. Lontz received his B.Sc. from Yale University and
Ph.D. (physics) from Duke University before joining the
U.S. Army Research Office ("ARO"), an advanced
research and development arm of the U.S. Army.
