Paul van der Heide is a recognized leader in surface analysis with emphasis on the application of Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS). This interest started during his PhD (completed in 1992 at the University of Auckland) which involved the design and construction of a magnetic sector SIMS instrument. Paul has since been heavily involved in the application and development of SIMS at the University of Western Ontario, the University of Houston (where he also filled in various Professor level positions), Samsung Austin Semiconductor, and most recently at GlobalFoundries (NY). Paul has ~100 publications with this representing his 2nd book.
