CMC Laboratories was founded in 2003 by a group of Solid State Physicists, Material Scientists, Mechanical Engineers and Chemists with a long history in material science and advanced electronics IP development. Since its founding, CMC's focus has been on solving advanced materials related problems through Materials Characterization, Failure Analysis, and Materials Related Consulting. CMC serves a global customer base, solving the problems of today for the technologies of tomorrow.
The CMC Team
We would like you to take the opportunity to meet some of our key team members.
Jonathan H. Harris, PhD.
Dr. Harris is the President and founder of CMC Laboratories, Inc. Dr. Harris is a graduate of Brown University, and recieved his doctorate in Solid State Physics in 1983. He is the author of over 50 scientific publications and book chapters and holds over 20 US Patents. Dr. Harris has also developed electronic packaging technology at IBM Microelectronics, Carborundum Microelectronics and BP Research Labs.
Prior to founding CMC Laboratories, Inc. in 2003, Dr. Harris was President of CMC Wireless Components, a high thermal performance ceramic packaging company which served the telecommunications and military communications device industries. Dr. Harris has played a leadership role in the electronic packaging and interconnect industry over the past 20 years.
Dr. Harris’ specific expertise is in advanced materials that are used inelectronic packaging and assembly. He has experience with a wide range ofelectronic materials including ceramics, polymers, metallization systems and semiconductors. He provides consulting services to customers predominantly in the LED, advanced materials, electronic packaging and electronic assembly industries.
