Robert Reuss

Dr. Robert Reuss was a DARPA Program Manager in the Microsystems Technology Office from 2001 to 2006. He was responsible for several research thrusts into fabrication of flexible, large area electronics including high mobility TFTs for digital and RF applications and organic photovoltaics, as well as conventional microelectronics efforts that included reconfigurable, multi-core processor design, asynchronous logic design methodology, and sub-threshold, ultra-low power operation. Prior to joining DARPA, Dr. Reuss spent twenty years in various technology and research management positions with Motorola. Earlier, he worked for the U.S. government as a research and development manager for seven years and was a Research Faculty member at the University of Colorado for three years. Dr. Reuss received a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Drexel University in 1971. He was elected to Motorola's Science Advisory Board, and is a member of the Electrochemical Society, Materials Research Society, and Society for Information Display, and a Senior Member of IEEE and a past chairman of the Phoenix Chapter of IEEE Waves and Device Societies. He has published over 50 papers and has been awarded 13 U.S. patents. His technology interests lie in the area of application of materials and electrochemistry technologies for advanced microelectronic applications and microsystems integration as well as large area electronics.
