Nathanael W Email & Phone Number

By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired. - F Kafka‐‐--------------------------------------------------------Nathan has a diverse interdisciplinary educational background in physics, mathematics and engineering.  His approach to problem solving is guided by the creativity and originality of a physicist, the rigor, simplicity and elegance of a mathematician, and the constraint and practicality of an engineer.  He has more than 10 years of semiconductor manufacturing process modeling experience (Intel, Micron, Samsung) and served as a secondary school teacher in high-need public schools for a few years.  He has 2 Bachelor’s degrees from UC Berkeley (Applied Mathematics, Chemical Engineering), 2 MS degrees and a Ph.D. from Stanford University (Scientific Computing & Computational Mathematics).-----------------------------------------------current interestartificial intelligence / machine learningpast accomplishments* accurate modeling of DSA free energy - bridging SCFT and DFT - polymer physics* fast inverse lithography solutions - "physical" as opposed to "mathematical" modeling of optical system* 3D mask effect modeling - efficient EM simulation and application to photomaskpatents: 10025177, 8745545
