Atwater Leads Executive Committee in 2000
Harry A. Atwater (California Institute of Technology) automatically assumes the presidency of the Materials Research Society for 2000, after serving as Vice President (President-Elect) in 1999. He succeeds Ronald Gibala from the University of Michigan, who now serves MRS as Immediate Past President. Martin L. Green (Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies) has been elected Vice President (President-Elect). Chuang Chuang Tsai (Applied Komatsu Techno logy) has been re-elected as Secretary, and Merrilea J. Mayo (Pennsylvania State University) remains as Treasurer, serving the second year of her term. The Council has re-elected Michael J. Aziz (Harvard University) and Alexander H. King (Purdue University) as two Councillors to serve one-year terms on the Executive Committee. The newly elected MRS Councillors are Orlando Auciello, Argonne National Laboratory; Anne M. Mayes, Massachu setts Institute of Technology; and R. Stanley Williams, Hewlett-Packard Laboratories. They will serve three-year terms beginning January 1, 2000, and join the following current members of Council: Michael J. Aziz; Katayun (Katy) Barmak, Carnegie Mellon University; John W. Cahn, National Institute of Standards and Technology; Anthony K. Cheetham, University of California—Santa Barbara; David J. Eaglesham, Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies; A. Lindsay Greer, Cambridge University; Alexander H. King; Karen Maex, IMEC, Belgium; Stephen J. Pennycook, Oak Ridge Na-

Atwater President Harry A. Atwater is associate professor of applied physics at the California Institute of Technology. He focuses his research on the synthesis and characterization of new thin-filrn electronic and photonic materials, and the development of new analytic and processing methods for electronic materi als. He has active interests in ion-surface interactions, epitaxial growth of semiconductors, and semiconductor nanocrystals, as well as in situ analytic tools for thin-film growth such as reflection electron energy loss spectroscopy. Prior to joining Caltech as assistant pro fessor in 1988, Atwater received a PhD degree in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1987. He was an IBM Postdoctoral Fellow in applied physics at Harvard University (1987-1988), and he received an NSF Presidential Young fnvestigator Award in 1989. For 15 years, Atwater has been an
Alexander H. King active contributor to Spring and Fall MRS Meetings. He co-organized four MRS technical symposia, co-chaired the 1997 MRS Fall Meeting, and has served as chair of the MRS Graduate Student Awards Subcommittee and as MRS Councillor and Vice President/President-Elect.
