John Vig (born 31 May 1942) is a physicist, executive and inventor. His career has been with the U.S. Army Research Lab and he has also been active with the IEEE and is known for his inventions in UV-ozone cleaning, Chemical polishing of quartz surfaces, Polyimide bonding of resonators and Noise in MEMS. His tutorial on quartz resonators is regularly updated and cited over 200 times.
Background and biography
Early life and education
He was born Vig János in Budapest, Hungary. His father was a jeweller. At the age of two, most of his relatives were murdered in concentration camps including Auschwitz, however his father survived[2] the camp at Buchenwald. The family fled Hungary in 1956 during the Hungarian Revolution and immigrated to the US as refugees in 1957. Settling in New York City with his family, he subsequently received a B.S. degree from City College New York in 1964. In 1969 he received a Ph.D. in Physics from Rutgers University. After graduating he began his professional career at the Electronic Components Laboratory at Fort Monmouth.[3]
Career
His professional career spanned roles working as a physicist, electronics engineer, program manager, executive and board member. He performed and led research to develop high-accuracy clocks, sensors and low-noise oscillators. He retired in 2006. Since retirement he consults, primarily to DARPA. He supports research in micro/nano resonators, low-noise oscillators and chip-scale atomic clocks.
He has also served the IEEE in many capacities in managerial, executive and governance roles including:
- IEEE President and CEO.[4]
- President of the Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control Society (UFFC-S)[5]
- Founding President of the Sensors Council[6]
- Vice President of Technical Activities
- Division Director
- Journal senior editor, associate editor and guest editor of special issues
- IEEE Investment Committee member
- Conference technical and general program chair
- Standards coordinating committee chair
He was elected Fellow of the IEEE in 1988 "for contributions to the technology of quartz crystals for precision frequency control and timing."[7]
Family
John comes from a musical family which includes cabaret and jazz singer Miklos Vig (uncle), saxophone and clarinet player György Vig (uncle) and jazz musician Tommy Vig (cousin). John and his wife are avid ballroom dancers.
