Chief, Manufacturing Metrology Division
Manufacturing
Engineering Laboratory
| Dr. Teague is Chief of the
Manufacturing Metrology Division in the Manufacturing
Engineering Laboratory of the National Institute of Standards
and Technology.
At NIST since 1972, Dr. Teague
has designed, constructed, and used precision instrumentation
for ultra-high accuracy dimensional metrology of surfaces
and micrometer to nanometer-scale features. Beginning
with his metal-vacuum-metal tunneling work in the 1970's,
he continued to work with such precision instrumentation
as scanning tunneling microscopes, atomic force microscopes,
displacement and phase-measuring interferometry, stylus
instruments, flexure stages, and light scattering apparatus.
Because the laboratory and building environments were
always factors in the ultimate performance of these
instruments, the subject of this workshop has been an
ongoing topic of great interest.
Dr. Teague is a member of the
American Society for Precision Engineering, has served
twice as the Society's President, and is a fellow of
the UK Institute of Physics. He served as Editor-in-Chief
of the international journal Nanotechnology for ten
years and is currently a member of the Editorial Board
of the journal. He holds a B.S. and M.S. in physics
from the Georgia Institute of Technology and a PhD in
physics from the University of North Texas. He has authored
or coauthored 70 papers, has presented 50 invited talks
in the technical fields described, and jointly with
colleagues, has six patents. Dr. Teague has received
the Gold Medal, Silver Medal, and Allen V. Astin Measurement
Science Award from the Department of Commerce, the Kilby
International Award by the Kilby Awards Foundation,
and an IR-100 Industrial Research and Development Award
for his work.

Head,
Chemistry Division
Dr. James S. Murday received a Bachelor
of Science in Physics from Case Western Reserve in 1964, and
a Ph.D. in Solid State Physics from Cornell in 1970. He joined
the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in 1970, led the Surface
Chemistry effort from 1975-1987, and has been Superintendent
of its Chemistry Division since 1988. From May to August 1997
he served as Acting Director of Research for the Department
of Defense, Research and Engineering. He is a member of the
American Physical Society, the American Chemical Society and
the Materials Research Society; and a fellow of the American
Vacuum Society (AVS), and the UK Institute of Physics. For the
AVS, he has served as trustee for 1981-1984, director for 1986-1988,
representative to the American Institute of Physics Governing
Board 1986-1992, president for 1991-93, and representative to
the Federation of Materials Societies 1998-present.
His research interest in nanoscience began in 1983 as an Office
of Naval Research program officer and continues through the
NRL Nanoscience Institute. He has organized numerous International
STM/NANO conferences and their proceedings. Under his direction,
both the AVS and the International Union for Vacuum Science,
Technology and Applications created a Nanometer Science/Technology
Division. He is Executive Secretary to the U.S. National Science
and Technology Council's Subcommittee on Nanoscale Science Engineering
and Technology (NSET) and Director of the National Nanotechnology
Coordinating Office. |

Ahmad Soueid
is a Principal / Senior Vice President of HDR Architecture,
Inc. He joined HDR over twelve years ago as a registered architect
after working for architectural firms in New York, Connecticut
and Texas. He focuses exclusively on the design and construction
of advanced technology facilities for both private and public
sector clients.
Ahmad Soueid is a registered architect that offers creative
solutions to technically challenging nanotechnology facilities.
Mr. Soueid is a leader in the design of nanotechnology facilities
and he serves as a hands-on Principal for a prestigious list
of nanotechnology projects such as the NIST Advanced Measurement
Laboratory, a 511,070 square feet $175M state-of-the-art
laboratory; Purdue University's $47M Birck Nanotechnology
Center as well as Brookhaven National Laboratory's
$28M Center for Functional Nanomaterials.
Mr. Soueid also consulted as a nanotechnology
facilities advisor to Mexico's Centro Nacional de Metrología
as well as the U.K.'s National Physical Laboratory.
Mr. Soueid was co-chairman of the Buildings for Advanced
Technology Workshop (January 2003) organized in part under
the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) in conjunction
with NIST and the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) as well
as the Buildings for Advanced Technology Workshop II
(January 2004), sponsored by Arizona State University.
Mr. Soueid's is a frequent speaker at
technical conferences. Mr. Soueid's presentation on the "Technical
Challenges of designing Bio-Nano spaces in a Cleanroom environment"
was a featured case study at a recent Tradeline Conference
on Nanotechnology facilities. Other presentations include
a variety of topics, including "High Accuracy Temperature
Control in Metrology Laboratories" at the Quality
Manufacturing 2000 Conference in Birmingham, United Kingdom,
and a presentation at the "New Trends in Metrology
Workshop" the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington,
United Kingdom as well as "A Case Study for Designing
for Nanotechnology" to the Ottawa Valley Chapter
of ASHRAE in Canada.
Mr. Soueid graduated from the
University of Texas at Arlington where he received both a
Bachelor of Science in Architecture and a Master of Architecture
degree.
