William M. Shockley William M. Shockley was born in 1949, in Chicago, Illinois and lives in Riverside, California. He is a professional writer by trade and a member of both the Science Fiction Writers of America and the Western Writers of America, with publication in the major genre markets of the US. His normal life involves writing fiction science fiction and western stories. Lately, though, he has turned to writing music more classical, usually, than ragtime, though rags keep sneaking into other pieces. Being an amateur musician he has played the piano for years. He has been into rags since the movie "The Sting" back in the early 70's, though he didn't start writing them until the 80's when the computer, a Commodore 64 machine, allowed him to do things his fingers wouldn't. Half of his "Commodore 64" rags are lost, but he's written a whole lot of new ones using Midisoft Studio 4.0 for Windows 95. More of them are available from W(m). M.'s Ego Tripper Music Page His favourite classical composers are Beethoven, Handel, Chopin and Cesar Franck. He also likes individual pieces by lots of different people (Borodin, Schubert etc.) and he also admires Bach. William says: "The piano is known as the King of instruments. If you haven't, you should listen to the Beethoven Piano Sonatas, the pianists' bible. Especially number 32, with a ragtime section in the middle of the second movement really. It syncopates, it moves. It rages rag!"

William Shockley William Shockley was born in London to American parents who were in England for several years on business. His father was a mining engineer and his mother a federal deputy surveyor of mineral lands. They returned to California when William was a toddler. His interest in science was encouraged from early on, through his parents' professions and by a neighbor who taught physics at Stanford. He graduated from Cal Tech in 1932 and then received his PhD from MIT in 1936. He began work immediately at Bell Labs. His research in solid state physics, especially vacuum tubes, made many theoretical advances in the company's goal to use electronic switches for telephone exchanges instead of the mechanical switches used up until then. During World War II, Shockley worked on military projects, particularly refining radar systems. As soon as the war ended, he was back doing solid-state research, now investigating semiconductors. One of his major contributions to the electronics industry was to apply quantum theory to the development of semiconductors. In 1947, with colleagues John Bardeen and Walter Brattain, he made the first successful amplifying semiconductor device. They called it a

HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL William Shockley was born in London, England, on 13th February, 1910, the son of William Hillman Shockley, a mining engineer born in Massachusetts and his wife, Mary ( Bradford) who had also been engaged in mining, being a deputy mineral surveyor in Nevada. During World War II he was Research Director of the Anti-submarine Warfare Operations Research Group and he afterwards served as Expert Consultant in the offce of the Secretary for War. He held two visiting lectureships: in 1946 at Princeton University, and in 1954 at the California Institute of Technology. For one year (1954-1955) he was Deputy Director and Research Director of the Weapons System Evaluation Group in the Defence Department. Shockley's research has been centred on energy bands in solids; order and disorder in alloys; theory of vacuum tubes; self-diffusion of copper; theories of dislocations and grain boundaries; experiment and theory on ferromagnetic domains; experiments on photoelectrons in silver chloride; various topics in transistor physics and operations research on the statistics of salary and individual productivity in research laboratories. His work has been rewarded with many honours. He received the Medal for Merit in 1946, for his work with the War Department; the Morris Leibmann Memorial Prize of the Institute of Radio Engineers in 1952; the following year, the Oliver E. Buckley Solid State Physics Prize of the American Physical Society, and a year later the Cyrus B. Comstock Award of the National Academy of Sciences. The crowning honour - the Nobel Prize for Physics - was bestowed on him in 1956, jointly with his two former colleagues at the Bell Telephone Laboratories, John Bardeen and Walter H. Brattain.

(Redirected from William Bradford Shockley William Shockley William Bradford Shockley February 13 August 12 American physicist ... eugenicist and co- inventor of the transistor with John Bardeen and Walter Houser Brattain , for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics . His attempts to commercialize a new transistor design in the 1950s and 60s led directly to the creation of Silicon Valley . In his later life, Shockley was a "superb" professor at Stanford. Born in London England , to American parents, and raised in California , he received his Bachelor of Science degree from the California Institute of Technology in and his doctorate from MIT in . Notably, the title of his doctoral thesis was Calculation of Electron Wave Functions in Sodium Chloride Crystals. After receiving his doctorate, he immediately joined a research group headed by Dr. C.J. Davisson at Bell Labs in New Jersey , and began moving up the management ladder. In the mid 1940's, Shockley's group, consisting of Bardeen and Brattain, sought a solid-state alternative to fragile glass vacuum tube amplifiers. Shockley insisted on working alone, leaving his two researchers by themselves, occasionally dropping by to direct their work.

"Exploiting [the transistor's] potential caused many headaches. A colleague called it a 'persistor', because persistence was what it took to make it." - William Shockley Born in London and raised in Palo Alto, Shockley received his Ph.D. in solid-state physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1932 and joined the staff of Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, NJ, in 1936. During World War II, he served as director of research for the Antisubmarine Warfare Operations Research Group of the US Navy. After the war, he returned to Bell Labs as director of transistor physics research. Dr. Shockley left Bell Labs in 1955 to establish Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory (part of Beckman Instruments, Inc.), an effort that was instrumental in the birth of Silicon Valley and the electronics industry. His former employees later invented the integrated circuit and founded Intel, the most successful microprocessor company in the world. Dr. Shockley later became a distinguished professor of electrical engineering at Stanford University. For more information about William Shockley, download the backgrounder:

The First Electronic Church of America William Shockley Bill Shockley didn't remain at Bell Labs. As he and his colleagues were winning a Nobel Prize for their discovery (they shared the $38,633 prize money), Shockley went west, to set up a semi-conductor lab at Beckman Instruments, and, then, his own Shockley Transistor Co. He began lecturing at Stanford in 1958, and went on to do a great deal of original research in electronics and allied fields. He still holds some 90 patents. Then, in 1973, Shockley shifted gears. He entered the field of eugenics specifically the relationship between race and IQ. Blacks, he pointed out, consistently score 10 to 20 points lower on their IQ tests than whites do. Critics leaped to attack him. First, they said, IQ tests are "culturally loaded." Second, even in "culture-free" tests, the lower black scores are explainable in terms of the black environment. And third, dissemination of these notions give aid and comfort to bigots everywhere. The problems were not scientific, of course, but political. Shockley went beyond his scientific findings to suggest practical conclusions not directly deducible from his data. He said, for example, that society should sterilize those with low intelligence.

William Bradford Shockley born Feb. 13, 1910, London, Eng. died Aug. 12, 1989, Palo Alto, Calif., U.S. American engineer and teacher, cowinner (with John Bardeen and Walter H. Brattain) of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1956 for their development of the transistor, a device that largely replaced the bulkier and less-efficient vacuum tube and ushered in the age of microminiature electronics. During the late 1960s Shockley became a figure of some controversy because of his widely debated views on the intellectual differences between races. Shockley was born in London, England, on February 13, 1910. His parents were Americans. Shockley came from a long, aristocratic American line, directly descending from John Alden and Priscilla Mullins from the Mayflower on his father's side. His father, William, was an MIT-trained mining engineer and adventurer, quite capable of staring down bandits at gunpoint on Mongolian railroads, but largely incapable of making a living. Shockley's mother, May Bradford, of Missouri stock, was one of the first women graduates of Stanford University, majoring in art and mathematics. She became the first woman surveyor in Nevada's silver mining territory. William was 24 years older than she; he was in his mid 50s. They married in 1908 and moved to London, where William had contract work. Their only child, William Bradford was born there. When he entered high school, Shockley spent two years at the Palo Alto Military Academy. He then enrolled for a brief time in the Los Angeles Coaching School to study physics. He finished his high school education at Hollywood High, graduating in 1927.
