Schawlow, died April 28 at age 77 in Palo Alto, Calif. Schawlow worked with Charles H. Townes in the 1950s on a device that evolved into a laser. The pair collaborated at Columbia University in New York, where they initially gained recognition for work on the maser, a microwave predecessor of the laser. Their goal was to invent a device that would amplify light the way a maser amplified microwaves. When they published their findings in 1957, the work sparked an international race to build the first working laser, a feat accomplished in 1960 by Theodore H. Maiman in Malibu, Calif. During his career, Schawlow worked at Bell Laboratories in New Jersey, where he studied superconductivity, and worked on laser and microwave spectroscopy at Stanford University. In the years that followed, he and Townes would each win a Nobel award. Schawlow shared a Nobel Prize in 1981 with Nicolaas Bloembergen of Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass., for contributions to laser spectroscopy.

50. Clausen, B. L. --- On Arthur L. Schawlow Professor arthur L. schawlow (1921 ). by Ben Clausen. Translated for Ciencia delos Orígenes, Enero-Agosto 1995, Ns. 40,41, p.13 http://www.grisda.org/bclausen/papers/co40.htm

Men of Science and of Faith in God Professor Arthur L. Schawlow (1921- ) by Ben Clausen Translated for Ciencia de los Orígenes , Enero-Agosto 1995, Ns. 40,41, p.13 Prof. Schawlow received his Ph.D. in physics at the University of Toronto in 1949. In 1981 he shared the Nobel Prize for Physics with Nicolaas Bloembergen and Kai Siegbahn "for their contribution to the development of laser spectroscopy". He is now a professor of Physics at Stanford University. In understanding the relation between science and faith, Prof. Schawlow believes that science can neither prove nor disprove religion, because religion is founded on faith. When confronted with the marvels of life and the universe, one asks why and not just how, and the only possible answers are religious. For him that means Protestant Christianity, to which he was introduced as a child and which has withstood the test of a lifetime. He believes that the context of religion is a great background for doing science. Psalm 19 says that "The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth his handiwork". Thus scientific research is a worshipful act, in that it reveals more of the wonders of God's creation. As for the origin of the universe and life, he believes that they should be pursued as vigorously as the scientists' abilities and interests can take them. From a religious point of view, we assume that God did it and hope to find out something about how he did it, but the answers will never be final and there will always be further surprises to come. Deeper questions will eventually have to be referred to religion.

Schawlow, Arthur Leonard I was born in Mount Vernon, New York, U.S.A. on May 5, 1921. My father had come from Europe a decade earlier. He left his home in Riga to study electrical engineering at Darmstadt, but arrived too late for the beginning of the term. Therefore, he went on to visit his brother in New York, and never returned either to Europe or to electrical engineering. My mother was a Canadian and, at her urging, the family moved to Toronto in 1924. I attended public schools there, Winchester elementary school, the Normal Model School attached to the teacher's college, and Vaughan Road Collegiate Institute (high school). As a boy, I was always interested in scientific things, electrical, mechanical or astronomical, and read nearly everything that the library could provide on these subjects. I intended to try to go to the University of Toronto to study radio engineering, and my parents encouraged me. Unfortunately my high school years, 1932 to 1937, were in the deepest part of the great economic depression. My father's salary as one of the many agents for a large insurance company could not cover the cost of a college education for my sister, Rosemary, and me. Indeed, at that time few high school graduates continued their education. Only three or four out of our high school class of sixty or so students were able to go to a unversity.

Academics Administration Libraries/Museums FAS Home FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Michael Patrick Rutter Harvard Scientist Federico Capasso Awarded the 2004 Arthur L. Schawlow Prize by the American Physical Society $10,000 Prize Highlights the Work of the Co-inventor of the Quantum Cascade Laser Cambridge, Mass. - December 18, 2003 - On behalf of the American Physical Society (APS), Harvard University's Federico Capasso, Robert L. Wallace Professor of Applied Physics and Vinton Hayes Senior Research Fellow in Electrical Engineering, has been awarded the 2004 Arthur L. Schawlow Prize in Laser Science, endowed by the NEC Corporation, for his "contributions to the invention and demonstration of the quantum cascade laser and the elucidation of its physics, which bridges quantum electronics, solid-state physics, and materials science." Quantum cascade (QC) lasers were invented and first demonstrated by Capasso and his group at Bell Labs in 1994. The powerful and portable lasers are made by stacking ultra thin atomic layers of semiconductor materials on top of each other. By varying the thickness of the layers scientists can select the wavelength at which a QC laser will emit light, custom designing it for a specific application. Some of the many potential applications of the laser include pollution monitoring, medical diagnostics such as breath analysis, combustion diagnostics, homeland security, and law enforcement. Capasso received the doctor of Physics degree, summa cum laude, from the University of Rome, Italy, in 1973 and after doing research in fiber optics at Fondazione Bordoni in Rome, joined Bell Labs in 1976. He joined Harvard's Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences in January 2003. He has been widely honored for his interdisciplinary research in fields such as materials research, solid state physics, electronics, and photonics. His honors include membership in the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Prof. Charles Townes Engineer, Scientist, and Co-Inventor of the Laser. Nobel Peace Prize Winner The Patent Dispute Regarding the Invention of the Laser by Todd Fronek A barcode scanner is one everyday use of laser technology. The laser has become a major techno logical factor in today's fast paced world. CD-ROM, laser printers and even eye surgery all involve using a laser. In 1960, Theodore Maiman produced the first working laser [Bromberg, 1988]. The discovery marked the zenith of many years of research, and also the beginning of numerous technological breakthroughs. Because many parties in addition to Maiman contributed substantial research to the invention of the laser, a dispute arose over who should receive the patent for the invention of the laser. LASER is an acronym for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation." A laser produces a thin beam of light that is monochromatic and coherent, meaning that the beam is one color and each wave of lighttravels in step. The laser process begins when energy enters and begins to strike the atoms in a system. The stimulated atoms give off energy in the form of light. This emitted light reflects back and forth between the ends of a cylinder, one end being a fully reflecting mirror and one end being a partially reflecting mirror. The light continues to excite more and more atoms, and finally the atoms contain enough energy to burst through the partially reflecting mirror in a beam of light. This beam of light has a variety of applications. For instance, it is able, in some cases, to drill tiny holes in diamonds within minutes (conventional methods take days to produce the same holes).

Issue of May 31, 2000 Memorial Resolution: Arthur Schawlow ARTHUR L. SCHAWLOW Arthur Leonard Schawlow was born in Mount Vernon, New York on May 5, 1921. The family moved to Canada a few years later. As a young boy, Art showed both a scientific aptitude and a love of tinkering with gadgets which stayed with him throughout his life. He graduated from high school at the age of 16 and originally intended to study radio engineering at the University of Toronto. Unable to afford the tuition, he was guided into his future career by a scholarship to study mathematics and physics. He continued on at Toronto and received a Master's degree in 1942 and a Ph.D. in 1949. During those years, his basement spectroscopy laboratory often reverberated with the sounds of Benny Goodman, "Jelly Roll" Morton, as well his own passable clarinet playing of Dixieland jazz. In 1949, Charles Townes offered him a post-doc position at Columbia University to work on microwave spectroscopy. He soon began to write with Townes the seminal book Microwave Spectroscopy , published in 1955. He met and married Townes' youngest sister, Aurelia, a talented vocalist. In 1951, Schawlow joined Bell Telephone Laboratories with the intent to work with John Bardeen on superconductivity. By the time Art arrived, Bardeen had departed, but Art decided to work on superconductivity nevertheless and did sound but not earthshaking work.

WHAT FRONTLINE DIDN'T TELL YOU IS FACILITATED COMMUNICATION REAL? Arthur L. Schawlow Arthur L. Schawlow is the Jackson-Wood Professor of Physics emeritus at Stanford University. He received a Nobel Prize in 1981 and the President's National Medal of Science in 1991. He has also received seven honorary doctorates, from universities in six countries. Although this method has been found independently in several places over the last twenty years, including by my late wife Aurelia and myself, it became widely known only during the last few years, mainly through the work of Rosemary Crossley in Australia, Douglas Biklen at the University of Syracuse and Carol Berger of Eugene, Oregon. Many people are using it now, and the results have often been spectacular. To give just one instance, David Eastham in Canada wrote a book of poetry which was published and translated into French. He graduated from junior college before his untimely death, and Margaret Eastham has detailed his accomplishments in the biography Silent Words.
