Biography
Gary
A. Evans was born in Omak, WA, graduated from Omak High School in
1966, was an undergraduate at at the University
of Washington (BSEE 1970) and a graduate student at the California Institute of Technology (MSEE,
1971; Ph.D. in electrical engineering and physics, 1975). After post-doctoral
work at Caltech, he was employed by R&D Associates, Marina Del Rey, CA,
(1975-79), and was a visiting assistant professor in the electrical engineering
department at the University of Washington
(1977-79). He has worked at the Aerospace
Corporation, El Segundo, CA (1979-81); TRW
(now Northrup Gumman), Redondo Beach, CA; and RCA Laboratories (now the Sarnoff Corporation), Princeton, NJ
(1984-92). In 1992 he joined Southern Methodist
University as a Professor in the Electrical
Engineering Department. He is a co-founder and member of the Board of Directors of Photodigm. Since 1979 he has primarily worked on the design,
growth, and fabrication of conventional cleaved facet and grating surface
emitting semiconductor lasers. He was elected a Fellow of the IEEE for "contributions to the
development, fabrication, and understanding of semiconductor lasers", has
over 200 publications,
and is a co-editor of the Academic Press book Surface Emitting Semiconductor
Lasers and Arrays. Dr. Evans is a licensed professional engineer, has served on
numerous national and
international committees, is a past Chairman of the Princeton Lasers and
Electro-Optics Society (LEOS) Section, a past Chairman of the Santa Monica Bay
Section of the IEEE, and was an Associate Editor of the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics
(1989-1995). He was the finance chairman for the 1994 IEEE International
Semiconductor Laser Conference and a Technical Program Vice Chair for the
