Article Draft[edit]

Lead[edit]

Betty Lise Anderson is an electrical engineer who has been a professor at The Ohio State University since 1990.[1] She has made significant contributions to photonics and is recognized as a Fellow of SPIE and a Senior Member of several prestigious engineering organizations. Anderson's research interests span laser diodes, interferometry, optoelectronic devices, and more. Her commitment to representing Women in STEM, and Stem overall, is shown through her leadership of the 'Engineering Outreach' program, aimed at inspiring underrepresented groups in STEM fields.[1] Andersons has received the National Science Board Public Service Award and is the author of the book "Fundamentals of Semiconductor Devices." Many of Anderson’s actions have shown her dedication to advancing scientific knowledge and fostering diversity within STEM.

Education[edit]

Betty Lise Anderson's earned her Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering/Materials Science from the University of Vermont in 1990, following the completion of her Master of Science degree in the same field in 1988. Prior to achieving these degrees, Anderson completed her Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Syracuse University in 1978.[2]

Carrer[edit]

Betty Lise Anderson's career has made significant contributions to the fields of engineering, academics, and public outreach. In her early career she was hired as an Optoelectronic Component Engineer at Tektronix, Inc., before going into research roles at institutions such as C.S. Draper Laboratories and GTE Laboratories.[1] After going back to and graduating with her Ph. D, Betty has been a huge part of The Ohio State University, where she has held various positions, including Assistant Professor, and currently Professor, since 2004. Anderson's impact extends beyond traditional academics, as evidenced by her roles as Associate Chair and Director of Outreach, where she has spearheaded initiatives such as the K12 Engineering Outreach program.[1]

Publications[edit]

Betty Lise Anderson's owns co-authorship of "Fundamentals of Semiconductor Devices," which has seen both first and second editions published by McGraw-Hill in 2005 and 2017. [3] Moreover, Anderson has made substantial contributions to peer-reviewed journals, showcasing her research in areas such as optical delay devices, photonic switches, and spatial coherence measurements. Some publications include her work on optical true-time delay devices, demonstrated through her papers in prestigious journals like the Journal of Lightwave Technology and Applied Optics.[4] Anderson's research has also delved into practical applications, as seen in her investigations into laser diode effects under gamma radiation and spatial coherence modulation for free space communication.[4] Her innovative approaches, as evidenced by her work on microbend fiber optic sensors and vertical cavity ring lasers, underscore her versatility and impact in the field. Anderson's publications reflect her commitment to advancing knowledge in photonics and electrical engineering fields.

Awards[edit]

Over the years, Betty has received many awards for her commitment, and dedication to the STEM field. Betty Lise Anderson received the 2022 Public Service Award from the National Science Board.[5] She is recognized for her exceptional contributions to promoting public understanding of science and engineering, Anderson's program has impacted over 35,000 K-12 students across central Ohio, offering hands-on engineering activities. Some other awards she has received include the Dean's Award for Distinguished Outreach Achievements in both 2021 and 2016, recognizing her significant impact in fostering outreach initiatives. Anderson's commitment to mentorship and fostering diversity within academia was acknowledged with the Faculty Mentoring Award in 2016 and the Faculty Diversity Excellence Award in 2012. Additionally, her leadership in promoting women in engineering earned her the Women in Engineering Faculty Award for Outreach and Engagement in 2014, while her innovative endeavors were recognized with the Innovators Award from Ohio State College of Engineering in 2007. Anderson's dedication to advancing technology and education has left a lasting mark on the generations to come.[6]
