Rich Ruby PhD, started his work on FBARs at HP Labs around 1993. He introduced the first FBAR product for cell phone applications in 2000. In 2004, he introduced an all-silicon, packaged FBAR filter and since then, has made seminal contributions to the Q and coupling coefficient of FBAR. In 2007, he also began to branch out from filter applications including stress-insensitive FBAR resonators for oscillators In 2010, he started work on Sc doped AlN (ASN) leading to the first commercial ASN product (in iPhones) introduced 2016/17. He switched acoustic technologies from FBAR to Silicon SAW products (SiSAW) to round out the technology portfolio of Broadcom’s Wireless Business. He is the recipient of the Industrial Application of Physics Prize awarded by the American Institute of Physics, the C.B. Sawyer Memorial Award, the Bill Hewlett Award, the Barney Oliver Award, and most recently the Distinguished Alumni Award from the University of California Berkeley.
