John R. Arthur
John Read Arthur Junior (born December 17, 1931 in Omaha , Nebraska ) is an American chemist and materials scientist. In the late 1960s, he and Alfred Y. Cho developed molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) at Bell Laboratories .
Arthur attended Iowa State University with a bachelor's degree in 1954 and a doctorate in physical chemistry in 1961. From 1961 to 1977 he was at Bell Laboratories. From 1977 to 1983 he conducted research with Perkin-Elmer and from 1983 he was professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Oregon State University . From 1992 he was director of the Center for Advanced Material Research and in 1996 he retired.
In addition to MBE, he deals with solid surfaces (adsorption, reaction kinetics on semiconductor surfaces), thin films, scattering of molecular beams from surfaces, Auger spectroscopy and electron diffraction. In 1982 he received the IEEE Morris N. Liebmann Memorial Award and the James C. McGroddy Prize for New Materials from the American Physical Society . In 1988 he received the Gaede-Langmuir Award from the American Vacuum Society .
John Arthur is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Vacuum Society (and their 1983 President).
