Employment History
From: To: 1997 Present Position: Glew Engineering Consulting, Inc. Mountain View, California President Clients include companies from semiconductor equipment, plasma generation, vacuum systems, fluid delivery systems, flow and pressure component suppliers, laser manufacturers, and others. Consulting work includes thin film characterization, process development, project turn-around/rescue, gas flow and vacuum metrology, design of experiments, corrosive gas applications, finite element analysis and related market analysis. Applied Materials, Inc. Santa Clara, California Engineering Manager, Core-Technologist Sat on corporate engineering/technology (ET) council, one of 15 council members. Responsible for corporate direction in gas delivery technology for all divisions, including CVD, PVD, etch, thermal and others. Also, qualified gas and vacuum component selections. Consulted with all divisions on gas and vacuum systems, and component and supplier selections. Successfully proposed and executed a project that SEMATECH S100 funded. The goal was to develop industry methods to determine the effects of trace chemicals on semiconductor processing and equipment reliability. This resulted in two SEMATECH Technology Transfers listed below. First, ppb levels of impurities were introduced into both a Tungsten CVD deposition process and an aluminum etching process. The effect on particle generation, deposition rate, GLEW EXHIBIT C

Curriculum Vitae
CVD Supplier Quality Engineering Manager uniformity, selectivity and incorporation into the film were examined. This work resulted in a 30% increase in deposition rate. Similarly, ppb-ppm levels of impurities were introduced into HBr gas systems and accelerated lifetime tests were conducted at three sites across the country. Responsible for gas, vacuum and chemical components evaluation, testing and supplier quality management. Managed an engineering group that tested and recommended gas, vacuum and chemical components for the CVD division, and developed process controls at suppliers. Supervised laboratory and trained individuals to develop specialized testing capabilities to characterize gas delivery and vacuum components. Also supported Etch, PVD and other divisions with common suppliers including vacuum pumps, vacuum transducers, flow controllers, valves and similar. Managed group of engineers and support personnel who developed gas panels and liquid source delivery systems for dielectric deposition. Delivered TEOS, TMP, TMB and other organometallic low-pressure liquids for SG, BPSG dielectric deposition. Also, started and managed the customer engineering special group for the CVD division, which engineered all equipment modifications to meet customer specifications. These modifications included changes across the entire system, including process chambers, vacuum systems, gas delivery, power distribution, safety and robotics. Worked on the development and release of the landmark product, Precision 5000 CVD, one of which is now in the Smithsonian Institute. This was the first cluster tool for semiconductor manufacturing. Responsible for flow and vacuum equipment suppliers for company including MFC, valves, mechanical vacuum pumps, cryo-pumps, dry pumps, and others. Supported multiple divisions on these matters.

Curriculum Vitae
Modeled and conducted experiments on mechanism of ion energy, momentum and flux dependence for FLAC and DLC film synthesis in radio-frequency plasma discharges, including competing mechanisms of sub-plantation, ion-peening, sputtering, and etching. Constructed and instrumented a multi-purpose processing chamber for CVD, etch, and sputtering with measurement capability. Fabricated MIS capacitors to investigate the dielectric properties of fluorinated amorphous carbon (FLAC). Performed all wafer processing to construct MIS capacitors, including lithography, etch, CVD and PVD. Conducted thin film analysis including UV absorption spectroscopy, spectral ellipsometry, multi incident angle ellipsometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, profilometry, nano-indentation, and gravimetric measurements. Modeled dielectric properties and dispersion relationship of fluorinated amorphous carbon (FLAC), and compared spectral ellipsometric measurements to results of electrical CV tests and thickness measurements by profilometry using MIS structures.
