INTRODUCTION
Prior to joining the University of Alberta in January, 2007, Dr.
Cadien was an Intel Fellow. This is the most senior technical position
at Intel Corporation and is recognition of outstanding technical
contributions and leadership at the company. There are approximately
50 fellows out of an employee population of about 90,000.
Dr. Cadien has made many significant breakthroughs in all aspects
of chemical mechanical polishing which are documented in his many
patents. Dr. Cadien also has been responsible for numerous breakthroughs
in optical interconnects and plasmons, and in several other areas
of semiconductor processing. In addition to his research and development
activities at Intel, Dr. Cadien was also one of company’s intellectual
property leaders and key experts. In addition to mentoring many
invention disclosures, he was a member of the process patent committees
that decide what invention disclosure should be patented, and he
also is the owner of intellectual property for the Technology and
Manufacturing Group at Intel, this group includes all integrated
circuit manufacturing, process development and research, and materials
and equipment development at Intel.
