James (Jim) E. Morris is an ECE professor at Portland State University, Oregon, and professor emeritus at SUNY-Binghamton, having served as department chair at both. He has BSc and MSc degrees in physics from the University of Auckland, NZ, a PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, and is an IEEE Fellow. Jim has served the IEEE Components Packaging and Manufacturing Technology (CPMT) Society as a treasurer (1991–1997), BoG member (1996–1998, 2011–2013), VP for conferences (1998–2003), distinguished lecturer (2000–), CPMT-Transactions associate editor (1998–), IEEE Nanotechnology Council representative (2007–) and co-chair of the CPMT Technical Committee (TC) on nanotechnology, and was recognized with the 2005 CPMT David Feldman Outstanding Contribution Award. On the Nanotechnology Council (NTC), he established the Nanopackaging TC, serves as the NTC Awards chair (2010–), and VP for conferences (2013–2014), and contributes to the IEEE Nanotechnology Magazine. He has been General Conference chair of four IEEE conferences, including IEEE NANO 2011, and program chair or treasurer for others. His current research spans electronics packaging, nanotechnology, and nanopackaging. He is actively involved in nanotechnology education and has chaired both the Education Society and CPMT Chapters at the local IEEE Oregon level. He has edited four books on electronics packaging, including one on nanopackaging, coauthored another, and is writing a sixth. This is his second in the nanotechnology field, both coedited with Kris Iniewski.
Krzysztof (Kris) Iniewski is managing R&D at Redlen Technologies Inc, a start-up company in Vancouver, Canada. Redlen’s revolutionary production process for advanced semiconductor materials enables a new generation of more accurate, all-digital, radiation-based imaging solutions. Kris is also a president of CMOS Emerging Technologies (www.cmoset.com), an organization of high-tech events covering communications, microsystems, optoelectronics, and sensors.
In his career, Dr. Iniewski has held numerous faculty and management positions at the University of Toronto, University of Alberta, Simon Fraser University, and PMC-Sierra Inc. He has published over 100 research papers in international journals and conferences. He holds 18 international patents granted in the United States, Canada, France, Germany, and Japan. He is a frequently invited speaker and has consulted for multiple organizations internationally. He has written and edited several books for IEEE Press, Wiley, CRC Press, McGraw-Hill, Artech House, and Springer. His personal goal is to contribute to healthy living and sustainability through innovative engineering solutions. In his leisure time, Kris can be found hiking, sailing, skiing, or biking in beautiful British Columbia. He can be reached at [email protected].
