Career edit
After earning her PhD, Mooney earned a position as an assistant professor of physics at Hiram College and Vassar College.[1] She taught physics at Hiram for two years before moving to Vassar.[2] From there, she was a senior research associate in the Physics Department at the University at Albany, SUNY, and was invited as a visiting scientist at the Groupe de Physique des Solide de l'ENS, Universit, de Paris VII, and at the Fraunhofer Institut fur Angewandte Festkrperphysik in Freiburg, Germany.[3]
Mooney joined IBM T.J. Watson Research Center in 1980 as a research staff member. While there, she received two Outstanding Technical Achievement Awards.[2] She eventually left in 2005 to become a Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in semiconductor physics at Simon Fraser University (SFU).[4]
Internationally, she has sat on the International Advisory Committee on Defects in Semiconductors[5] and Chaired the Gordon Research Conference on Defects in Semiconductors.[3] In 2013, Mooney was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada[6] and Materials Research Society.[7]
