MANJUL BHUSHAN

MANJUL BHUSHAN received a Ph.D. in physics from Clemson University. She has over 30 years of experience in basic and applied research, development, and design. Prior to joining IBM in 1997 she held university, government laboratory, and industrial positions in the areas of compound semiconductor thin-film photovoltaic cells and fabrication technology for superconducting devices used in magnetic field detection and microwave applications. She was a pioneer in the development and use of chemical mechanical polish planarization techniques for fabricating deep sub-micron superconducting tunnel junctions used in high frequency digital logic circuits and for superconducting scanning magnetometers. She now works as a Senior Technical Staff Member in the area of CMOS technology and product performance characterization and model-to-hardware correlation for IBM’s Systems and Technology Group.
