Dick Swisher
Swisher & Associates
Dick received his undergraduate
degrees in Math and Physics in
1963. In 1968 he finally finished a
Masters Degree in Space Physics
under Dr. Van Allen at the U. of
Iowa. He changed careers from launching things
to helping make things in order to feed the family
adequately. He joined Sheldahl that year to help
develop a patented solid state, flat screen television
display. The patent for the TV screen didnt actually
work. However the thin film materials and processes
developed in the attempt, led to innovative portable
X-Ray image intensifiers, IR image intensifiers,
and low visible light image intensifiers that were
of great interest to the US government. After this
several coatings were developed for use on adap-
tive, deceptive, or just stealthy space decoys. Along
the way roll-to-roll coating of Bismuth films on
polymers with immediate in-tank hot lamination was
developed to make laser tracing films for situation
displays.
Most of his interesting deposition experiences have
been in evaporating very thick coatings of metals
onto a variety of polymers and other webs. This has
involved Lead, Tin, Bismuth, Aluminum, Copper,
Silver, Gold, and Lithium.
He holds seven US patents in thin film coatings and
five of them are making money for people. His most
recent large projects were evaporating Copper for
use in flexible printed circuitry.
He retired from Sheldahl in May 2006. He hopes
that his prolific entries in the Journal of Failed
Experiments can be of use to help others avoid
some potholes in the road to success.
