Elsa Reichmanis (born December 9, 1953, Melbourne, Australia)[1] is an American chemist, who was president of the American Chemical Society from 2003 to 2006. Elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 1995, she is currently on the faculty of the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering of the Georgia Institute of Technology.[2][3] Reichmanis is noted for her research into microlithography, and is credited for contributing to the "development of a fundamental molecular level understanding of how chemical structure affects materials function leading to new families of lithographic materials and processes that may enable advanced VLSI manufacturing".[4]
