   Extractions: HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL Charles Hard Townes was born in Greenville, South Carolina, on July 28, 1915, the son of Henry Keith Townes, an attorney, and Ellen (Hard) Townes. He attended the Greenville public schools and then Furman University in Greenville, where he completed the requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree in physics and the Bachelor of Arts degree in Modern Languages, graduating summa cum laude in 1935, at the age of 19. Physics had fascinated him since his first course in the subject during his sophomore year in college because of its "beautifully logical structure". He was also interested in natural history while at Furman, serving as curator of the museum, and working during the summers as collector for Furman's biology camp. In addition,he was busy with other activities, including the swimming team, the college newspaper and the football band. A member of the technical staff of Bell Telephone Laboratories from 1933 to 1947, Dr. Townes worked extensively during World War II in designing radar bombing systems and has a number of patents in related technology. From this he turned his attention to applying the microwave technique of wartime radar research to spectroscopy, which he foresaw as providing a powerful new tool for the study of the structure of atoms and molecules and as a potential new basis for controlling electromagnetic waves.

He attended the Greenville public schools and then Furman University from which he received the Bachelor of Science degree in Physics and the Bachelor of Arts degree in Modern Languages. He was graduated summa cum laude in 1935. A year later he completed work for the Master of Arts degree in Physics at Duke University.

Townes was a member of the technical staff of the Bell Telephone Laboratories from 1939 to 1947. He worked extensively during World War II on the design of radar bombing systems. From this he turned to the field of the microwave spectroscope which he foresaw both as a powerful new tool for the study of the structure of atoms and molecules and as a potential new basis for controlling electromagnetic waves. He was appointed to the faculty of Columbia University in 1948. He continued research in microwave physics and in 1951 be conceived the idea of the maser. In early 1954, the first amplification and generation of electromagnetic waves by stimulated emission were obtained. Townes and his students coined the word "maser" for this device, which is an acronym for microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.

Talk Charles H Townes had faith from the start. He believed you could use microwaves to make ultraprecise measurements in the laboratory, so he started devising the maser, forerunner of the laser beam. Masers, and lasers, are inventions that nobody predicted, because nobody dreamed that they were possible except Townes, then at Columbia University in New York. His faith took him to a Nobel prize, a role in the Apollo programme, a career in astrophysics and - yesterday - to Buckingham Palace to meet the Duke of Edinburgh and, at 89, receive the $1.5m Templeton prize for the research that links science and religion.

    Extractions: Main Charles H. Townes was born in Greenville, South Carolina, on July 28, 1915. He received a B.A. and a B.S. from Furman University in 1935. In 1937, he received an M.A. from Duke University . He finished his Ph.D. in 1939 at Cal Tech and went to work for Bell Labs in New York City. He helped work on radar bombing systems during World War Two. Townes later becomes a professor at Columbia University. While there he comes up with the concept of a maser and meets Arthur L. Schawlow. Townes built the first maser in 1953. In 1957, he began work, along with Schawlow, on the laser. In 1960, they received a patent for the laser and the first one is built at Hughes Aircraft Company using a ruby. In 1964, Townes, along with A. Prokhorov and N. Basov, shared the Nobel Prize for Physics. Townes taught at MIT and served as Vice President of the Institute for Defense Analysis. He has remained on the lecture circuit as recently as the past five years. TrackBack
