Bill Freeman, VP, Manufacturing
Bill brings extensive experience in transitioning products from the R&D/engineering phase to manufacturing. Some background highlights include chief scientist at Raynet, where he developed advanced fiber-optic telecommunications devices; founder and director of RayLAN, which was the first company to put lasers into networking systems and successfully market the products; a founding member of the integrated circuit design team at Finisar which produced ICs that are now in more than a quarter of the fiber optic networking transceivers sold and which developed the world's smallest and most robust optical isolator for telecommunications that now holds more than 75% of the world market; founder of Transthermal, where he developed the enabling processes for manufacturing the world's thinnest and smallest thermoelectric cooler. More than 20 papers and 40 patents demonstrate that Bill is comfortable in both R&D and manufacturing environments. |
