Summary
Bowen Dong is a New Product Development Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience bridging materials science research and semiconductor equipment R&D. He holds a Ph.D. in Materials Science and has deep expertise in thin-film deposition, non-equilibrium alloy processing, and magnetic materials, with practical skills in magnetron sputtering, e-beam/thermal evaporation, melt-spinning, and spark plasma sintering. At Lam Research he translated complex thermal and etch control problems into engineering tools and novel wafer temperature control systems, and now drives product development at Momentive Technologies. Bowen pairs lab-scale invention—building precision instruments and high-throughput characterization systems—with manufacturing-focused problem solving, having led failure analyses and process development across academia and industry. He was part of an R&D 100 award-winning team and routinely converts advanced materials concepts into scalable experiments and product-ready solutions. Based in Strongsville, Ohio, he combines strong communication and cross-functional collaboration with a track record of turning experimental capability into tangible product advances.
