Education:

Brief Biography

Erkin Sidick was born in Aksu city. After earning his BS degree, he worked as a teacher at Xinjiang University from Feb. 1983 to Sep. 1985. During this time he spent one year at Shanghai Jiaotung University as a domestic visiting scholar, and studied electro-magnetics and micro-wave technology. In Sep. 1985, Erkin Sidick went to Osaka Electro-Communication University (OECU) of Japan as a research associate, where he conducted research on micro-wave and mm-wave layered ferrite waveguide devices. Erkin deeply impressed his Japanese professors and colleagues in hard-working, and due to his outstanding performance in research, he was recommended by OECU to the graduate program at Osaka University (ranked as one of the top 3 universities in engineering in Japan) in April 1987. Osaka University admitted Erkin to its graduate program, waiving all of the entry exams. However, a delegation from Xinjiang Education Commission rejected this recommendation, and Erkin could not obtain a graduate degree in Japan (OECU did not have a graduate program at that time. The OECU officials felt very bad about and very disappointed by this event, and started a process to establish a Master's program about a year later. They formally opened the program at OECU by 1990. When Erkin Sidick re-visited this university in 1991, the university president gave an official dinner for his honor and personally thanked him for becoming a reason for them to establish a graduate program. The OECU has accepted about 10 more Uyghur students since then). During a period of 2 and a half years, he published 19 research papers in top-level international journals as well as Japanese and international conferences. He returned from Japan to Urumchi in Apr. 1988. In Sept. of the same year he went to the USA to earn his graduate degrees.

CSUN. Erkin studied for his Master's degree at California State University, Northridge (CSUN) from Sep. 1988 to May 1990 in Physics. Although this is a new major for him (his original major is electrical engineering), he did very well in his course work, research and teaching. His Master's thesis was published in the Journal of Applied Physics, and he received T. C. Liang's Memorial Award in 1989, and the Best Teaching Assistant Award in 1990, from the Department of Physics at CSUN.

UC Davis. In 1990, Erkin Sidick got admissions to doctoral programs from 6 universities, including the University of Utah, University of Southern California, and the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), and he chose UC Davis. By the time he finished his doctoral studies in March 1995, he co-authored 10 journal papers, 3 book chapters, and 7 conference papers from his work at UC Davis. One of the reviewers of his paper, Nobel prize winner Dr. A. F. Huxley, is said to be a grandson of the Periodic Table inventor Darwin, and recommended one of Erkin's papers to Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. He used in his dissertation only half of the achievements that he obtained in his Ph.D. research, and he was chosen twice as the Finalist for the Outstanding Graduate Teaching Award and as the winner of the Best Ph.D. Dissertation Award. The latter is a highly competitive award given to only one Ph.D. graduate during an academic year in the Department of Electrical Engineering at UC Davis.

Sandia National Labs. Erkin Sidick worked as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate jointly at UC Davis and Sandia National Laboratories (Livermore, California) until Sep. 1996, under the guidance of a world-famous scientist, the inventor of FROG ( Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating), Dr. Rick Trebino (Dr. Trebino is currently the chairman of the Physics Department at Georgia Institute of Technology). Where he designed and developed a micro-machined fiber-optic laser trap used to capture and manipulate biological micro particles, and a nonlinear multi-element optical achromatic phase-matching system used in second-harmonic generation of broadband and tunable lasers as well as optical ultra-short pulses. During this period, he co-authored one patent, 4 journal papers in the highest-level international journals such as Optics Letters, and 6 conference papers. During this time as well as when he was a graduate student at UC Davis, Erkin also taught upper-division undergraduate courses in electrical engineering as a part-time faculty at UC Davis and as a Lecturer at California State University, Sacramento.

CVI. In Sep. 1996, Erkin Sidick started an industrial Research and Development (R&D) career at CVI Laser Corporation (Livermore, California), where he served as a Senior Development Engineer and the Manager of Coating Department. In this company, Erkin designed and developed new optical thin-film components, such as anti-reflection coatings, beam-splitters, this-film polarizers, polarization beam-splitters, partial-reflectors and mirrors, and so on, and improved optical coating deposition processes of electron-beam  high-vacuum (10-6 Torr) chambers. He also designed, developed and built a White-Light Interferometer optical instrument (both LabView software and optical-electrical hardware) used to measure the nonlinear phases of optical components. At that time there were only about 3 such pieces of instruments in various laboratories around the world. He also designed and built a small size lock-in amplifier electronic instrument used to measure ultra-low level (micro-volt) electronic signals.

WaveSplitter. Erkin joined WaveSplitter Technologies (WST) Inc. (Fremont, California) in March 2000 as a Senior Optical Engineer, and lateral was promoted as an Engineering Manager. At one time, he managed 12 engineers and technicians. In this company he carried out technology evaluation, new technology and new product development, project and engineering management, and patent review in the fields of passive optical components for fiber-optic communications. He served as a technical architect for several optical components, and competed by himself alone with several major Japanese companies including NEL, NEC, Hitachi and Sumitomo in Interleaver technology based on both fused-fiber and Planar Lightwave Circuits (PLC), in many occasions deeply impressing his counterparts in those big companies with his technical, negotiation and language skills. The fused-fiber Fourier-filter Interleavers produced by WST were chosen in 2001 by several big long-haul communications systems companies such as Siemens, Lucent and NEC as the best product in the world.

MFSI. In May 2003, Erkin joined MicroFluidic Systems Inc. (Pleasanton, California), a bio-technology start-up company that develops biological instruments for the analysis and detection of biological and chemical agents in the air, after WST moved its engineering operations to Taiwan. In this company, he successfully designed and built a multi-channel excitation-emission (flourescence)-detection optical module that carries out optical analysis on DNA's amplified by a PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) process.

From 1996 to 2002, Erkin co-founded two high-technology companies in the Silicon Valley of California, as the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and the Vice-President of Engineering, respectively, in the fields of optical communications. But both companies could not fly off due to the huge down-turn in the world-wide optical telecommunications industry occurred in the last a couple of years.

JPL. Erkin Sidick joined Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL, http://www.jpl.nasa.gov) in Pasadena, California, in Jan. 2004 as a Member of Technical Staff for space telescopes. JPL is one of the NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) centers having an annual budget of 1.4 billion dollars and employing more than 6000 people, among which about 2000 have Ph.D. degrees and about 2000 have M.S. degrees. It is a part of California Institute of Technology, and is funded by NASA. Some believe that Erkin is the only Turkic person who could have joined JPL in the last 20 years. In August 2004, Erkin Sidick received a Spot Award from JPL "For the continued development of the Space Telescope Error Budget tool and integrated optical-mechanical-thermal modelling capability enabling an accelerated design cycle."  In 2007, Erkin Sidick received 3 "Bonus Awards" from JPL, and one "Certificate of Recognition" from NASA.  His name and biography have been included in the 2008th edition of Marquis' "Who is Who in America".
