Grodnensky was previously a principal engineer at Intel from 2002-2005, working at Intel’s Portland, Oregon, site, a global centre of semiconductor research and manufacturing. There he received an individual award for developing and introducing new PMOS metrology. From 1995 to 2002 he was principal engineer at Nikon Precision, in Belmont, California, where he was responsible for applications and technology support of state-of-the-art Nikon litho exposure tools.
Since 2010, he also serves as vice president of Technology at NANO3D Systems, which is developing and licensing innovative process nanomaterials for low cost and scalable metallization of next-generation integrated circuits and solar cells.
In 1993 he was invited by the French government and accepted the position of program director at the National Atomic Centre in France. Prior to that, he was invited to collaborate with Nobel Prize winner Klaus von Klitzing in the field of quantum-wire and quantum-dot electronics at the Max-Planck Institute for Solid State Research in Stuttgart. Grodnensky holds 21 patents and is the author of more than 50 scientific publications.
“Mr Grodnensky’s buy-side technology acquisition experience, project management and business development capabilities will help drive successful strategic growth partnerships with major companies in the marketplace and accelerate the commercialization of Nafen nano fibre products and solutions,” said Aleksander Timofeev, a member of the board of directors at ANF Technology.
