executive management in almost every area of business, including fifteen years

During his hiatus from MATHESON, Kroll served as Executive Vice

chips; and the joint venture with Union Miniere in the use of Germanium
substrates for III-V devices. Kroll retired from Emcore in 2001.
Prior to his executive duties at MATHESON and Emcore, Mr. Kroll served
as Vice President of Marketing for Machine Technology, Inc., a manufacturer of
semiconductor equipment for photoresist applications, plasma CVD, and related
equipment. Previous to this, Mr. Kroll was a general manager at BOC Gas and a
Project Supervisor in Semiconductor Research for Bell Laboratories.
Kroll completed his undergraduate and graduate work at Northwestern University.
He is an established author having penned more than 50 papers in the areas of
physical and chemical vapor deposition for semiconductor technology and is a
member of IEEE, SEMI, SPIE, SAE, The Electrochemical Society and MRS. He has
served on the Boards of Princeton Photonics and Optoelectronics Materials
Center, and currently serves on the boards of the CGA, AeA, IOMA, Circle of
Life, MATHESON and Taiyo Nippon Sanso Corporation. Kroll was
inducted into the New Jersey High Tech Hall of Fame in 2004, was named as one
of the top 25 Entrepreneurs in New Jersey by NJ Biz in 2006, was appointed by
the Governor of New Jersey to his Commission on Outsourcing and Off-shoring in
2007 and in October 2007 was awarded the Boy Scouts of America Distinguished
