BIOGRAPHY: Dr. Arpad Bergh

Arpad A. Bergh received his Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in
1959 in Physical Chemistry. From 1959-1966 he was with Bell Laboratories,
Allentown, Pennsylvania, where he worked on the development
of semiconductor devices and on various aspects of MOS technology. In 1966
he was transferred to Murray Hill, NJ to supervise the development of GaP
electroluminescent devices. Two years later he became head of the Compound
Semiconductor Materials and Devices Development Department, responsible
for lasers, LEDs, photodetectors and microwave devices. In this capacity
he routinely interacted with Japanese researchers and hosted several
visiting scientists in his laboratory including Dr. Takashi Iizuka,
president of the Joint Optoelectronic Laboratory in Japan.

When Bellcore was formed in 1983, Dr. Bergh became Division Manager of the
Device Science and Technology Research Division, conducting research
in photonic devices, gallium-arsenide high-speed circuits, and display
devices. He retired from Bellcore on 9/1/94 as the Executive Director of
the Applied Research Program Development Department, reporting to R. W.
Lucky,Vice President of Applied Research, and became full time president of
OIDA.

He holds 11 patents and has authored over 20 papers on semiconductor
materialsand devices. He has co-authored a book on Light Emitting Diodes,
publishedby Oxford Press in 1976 and a chapter on Network Systems
Applications andMarkets for Optoelectronic Integration in a book published
in 1994 on Optoelectronic Integration, edited by O. Wada of Fujitsu
Laboratories. He isa fellow of the IEEE and a member of OSA and the
Society of Competitive Intelligence Professionals.
