起源和历史地点

  Bell's personal research after the telephone(贝尔继电话之后的个人研究)

  In 1880, when the French government awarded Alexander Graham Bell the Volta Prize of 50,000 francs (approximately US$10,000 at that time; about $280,000 in January 2019's dollars)for the invention of the telephone, he used the award to fund the Volta Laboratory (Alexander Graham Bell Laboratory) in Washington, D.C. in collaboration with Sumner Tainter and Bell's cousin Chichester Bell.The laboratory was variously known as the Volta Bureau, the Bell Carriage House, the Bell Laboratory and the Volta Laboratory.
  1880 年,当法国政府授予亚历山大·格雷厄姆·贝尔 50,000 法郎(当时约为 10,000 美元;按 2019 年 1 月的美元计算约为 280,000 美元)的伏打奖时,他用该奖项资助了伏打实验室(Alexander Graham Bell 实验室)在华盛顿特区与 Sumner Tainter 和 Bell 的表弟 Chichester Bell 合作。该实验室被称为 Volta Bureau、  Bell Carriage House、  Bell Laboratory 和 Volta Laboratory

It focused on the analysis, recording, and transmission of sound. Bell used his considerable profits from the laboratory for further research and education to permit the "[increased] diffusion of knowledge relating to the deaf":resulting in the founding of the Volta Bureau (c. 1887) which was located at Bell's father's house at 1527 35th Street N.W. in Washington, D.C. Its carriage house became their headquarters in 1889.

  它专注于声音的分析、记录和传输。贝尔利用他从实验室获得的可观利润用于进一步的研究和教育,以允许“[增加]与聋人有关的知识的传播”:导致成立沃尔特局(约 1887 年),该局位于贝尔父亲的家中华盛顿特区西北第 35 街 1527 号它的马车房于 1889 年成为他们的总部。

  In 1893, Bell constructed a new building close by at 1537 35th Street N.W., specifically to house the lab.This building was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1972.

  1893 年,贝尔在西北 35 街 1537 号附近建造了一座新建筑,专门用于安置实验室。这座建筑于 1972 年被宣布为国家历史地标。

  After the invention of the telephone, Bell maintained a relatively distant role with the Bell System as a whole, but continued to pursue his own personal research interests.

  继电话发明后,贝尔与整个 “贝尔系统” 保持着相对远的距离,但继续追求自己的个人研究兴趣。


Early antecedent(早期的前因)

The Bell Patent Association was formed by Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Sanders, and Gardiner Hubbard when filing the first patents for the telephone in 1876.

  贝尔专利协会由亚历山大·格雷厄姆·贝尔、托马斯·桑德斯和加德纳·哈伯德在 1876 年为电话申请第一个专利时成立。

  Bell Telephone Company, the first telephone company, was formed a year later. It later became a part of the American Bell Telephone Company.

  一年后,第一家电话公司贝尔电话公司成立。它后来成为美国贝尔电话公司的一部分。

  American Telephone & Telegraph Company (AT&T) and its own subsidiary company, took control of American Bell and the Bell System by 1889.

  美国电话电报公司 (AT&T) 及其子公司于 1889 年控制了美国贝尔和贝尔系统。

  American Bell held a controlling interest in Western Electric (which was the manufacturing arm of the business) whereas AT&T was doing research into the service providers.

  American Bell 持有 Western Electric(该公司的制造部门)的控股权,而 AT&T 则对服务提供商进行研究。

  In 1884, the American Bell Telephone Company created the Mechanical Department from the Electrical and Patent Department formed a year earlier.
  1884 年,美国贝尔电话公司从一年前成立的电气和专利部门创建了机械部门。

 

正式组织和地点变更

463 West Street New York Bell Labs
 
  The original home of Bell Laboratories beginning in 1925, 463 West Street, New York.

  In 1896, Western Electric bought property at 463 West Street to station their manufacturers and engineers who had been supplying AT&T with their product. This included everything from telephones, telephone exchange switches, and transmission equipment.

  On January 1, 1925, Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc. was organized to consolidate the development and research activities in the communication field and allied sciences for the Bell System. Ownership was evenly shared between Western Electric and AT&T. The new company had existing personnel of 3600 engineers, scientists, and support staff. In addition to the existing research facilities of 400,000 square feet of space, its space was extended with a new building on about one quarter of a city block.

  The first chairman of the board of directors was John J. Carty, the vice-president of AT&T, and the first president was Frank B. Jewett, also a board member, who stayed there until 1940. The operations were directed by E. B. Craft, executive vice-president, and formerly chief engineer at Western Electric.

  By the early 1940s, Bell Labs engineers and scientists had begun to move to other locations away from the congestion and environmental distractions of New York City, and in 1967 Bell Laboratories headquarters was officially relocated to Murray Hill, New Jersey.

  Among the later Bell Laboratories locations in New Jersey were Holmdel, Crawford Hill, the Deal Test Site, Freehold, Lincroft, Long Branch, Middletown, Neptune, Princeton, Piscataway, Red Bank, Chester, and Whippany. Of these, Murray Hill and Crawford Hill remain in existence (the Piscataway and Red Bank locations were transferred to and are now operated by Telcordia Technologies and the Whippany site was purchased by Bayer).

  The largest grouping of people in the company was in Illinois, at Naperville-Lisle, in the Chicago area, which had the largest concentration of employees (about 11,000) prior to 2001. There also were groups of employees in Indianapolis, Indiana; Columbus, Ohio; North Andover, Massachusetts; Allentown, Pennsylvania; Reading, Pennsylvania; and Breinigsville, Pennsylvania; Burlington, North Carolina (1950s–1970s, moved to Greensboro 1980s) and Westminster, Colorado. Since 2001, many of the former   locations have been scaled down or closed.

  1896年,Western Electric 在西街 463 号购买了房产,以安置他们的制造商和工程师,这些制造商和工程师一直在为 AT&T 提供产品。这包括电话、电话交换交换机和传输设备的所有内容。

  1925年1月1日,贝尔电话实验室公司成立,以巩固贝尔系统在通信领域和相关科学领域的开发和研究活动。所有权由西部电气和 AT&T 平均分配。新公司现有 3600 名工程师、科学家和支持人员。除了现有的 400,000 平方英尺的研究设施外,它的空间还在大约四分之一的城市街区内扩建了一座新建筑。

  董事会的第一任主席是 AT&T 的副总裁 John J. Carty,第一任总裁是 Frank B. Jewett,他也是董事会成员,一直待到 1940年。业务由 EB Craft 领导,执行副总裁,曾任西部电气总工程师。

  到 1940年代初,贝尔实验室的工程师和科学家已经开始搬到远离纽约市拥挤和环境干扰的其他地方,1967 年,贝尔实验室总部正式搬迁到新泽西州的默里山。

  贝尔实验室后来在新泽西的地点包括 Holmdel、Crawford Hill、Deal Test Site、Freehold、Lincroft、Long Branch、Middletown、Neptune、Princeton、Piscataway、Red Bank、Chester 和 Whippany。其中,Murray Hill 和 Crawford Hill 仍然存在(Piscataway 和 Red Bank 的地点已转移到 Telcordia Technologies 并由其运营,而 Whippany 的地点已被拜耳收购)。

  该公司最大的员工群体位于伊利诺伊州芝加哥地区的 Naperville-Lisle,这是 2001 年之前员工最集中的地区(约 11,000 人)。印第安纳州印第安纳波利斯也有员工群体;俄亥俄州哥伦布;马萨诸塞州北安多弗;宾夕法尼亚州阿伦敦;宾夕法尼亚州雷丁;和宾夕法尼亚州布赖尼斯维尔;北卡罗来纳州伯灵顿(1950 年代至 1970 年代,1980 年代搬到格林斯伯勒)和科罗拉多州威斯敏斯特。自 2001 年以来,许多以前的地点已经缩小或关闭。

  The Holmdel site, a 1.9 million square foot structure set on 473 acres, was closed in 2007. The mirrored-glass building was designed by Eero Saarinen. In August 2013, Somerset Development bought the building, intending to redevelop it into a mixed commercial and residential project. A 2012 article expressed doubt on the success of the newly named Bell Works site,but several large tenants had announced plans to move in through 2016 and 2017.

  Holmdel 场地占地 190 万平方英尺,占地 473 英亩,于 2007 年关闭。镜面玻璃建筑由 Eero Saarinen 设计。2013 年 8 月,Somerset Development 购买了该建筑,打算将其重新开发为一个混合商业和住宅项目。2012 年的一篇文章对新命名的 Bell Works 工地的成功表示怀疑,但一些大租户已宣布计划在 2016 年和 2017 年搬入。

 

 

发现和发展

  Bell Laboratories was, and is, regarded by many as the premier research facility of its type, developing a wide range of revolutionary technologies, including radio astronomy, the transistor, the laser, information theory, the operating system Unix, the programming languages C and C++, solar cells, the charge-coupled device (CCD), and many other optical, wireless, and wired communications technologies and systems.
   


       1920s

 In 1926, the laboratories invented an early example synchronous-sound motion picture system, in competition with Fox Movietone and DeForest Phonofilm.

  In 1924, Bell Labs physicist Walter A. Shewhart proposed the control chart as a method to determine when a process was in a state of statistical control. Shewhart's methods were the basis for statistical process control (SPC): the use of statistically based tools and techniques to manage and improve processes. This was the origin of the modern quality movement, including Six Sigma.

  1924 年,贝尔实验室的物理学家 Walter A. Shewhart 提出了控制图作为确定过程何时处于统计控制状态的一种方法。Shewhart 的方法是统计过程控制 (SPC) 的基础:使用基于统计的工具和技术来管理和改进过程。这就是包括六西格码在内的现代质量运动的起源。

  In 1927, a Bell team headed by Herbert E. Ives successfully transmitted long-distance 128-line television images of Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover from Washington to New York. In 1928 the thermal noise in a resistor was first measured by John B. Johnson, and Harry Nyquist provided the theoretical analysis; this is now termed Johnson noise. During the 1920s, the one-time pad cipher was invented by Gilbert Vernam and Joseph Mauborgne at the laboratories. Bell Labs' Claude Shannon later proved that it is unbreakable.

  1927年,以 Herbert E. Ives 为首的贝尔团队成功地将商务部长 John B. Johnson 的128线电视图像从华盛顿远程传送到纽约。1928 年,John B. Johnson 首次测量了电阻器中的热噪声,Harry Nyquist 提供了理论分析;这现在被称为 约翰逊噪声。在 1920 年代,一次性密本密码由 Gilbert Vernam 和 Joseph Mauborgne 在实验室发明。贝尔实验室的克劳德香农后来证明它是牢不可破的。

1930s

 

   In 1931, a foundation for radio astronomy was laid by Karl Jansky during his work investigating the origins of static on long-distance shortwave communications. He discovered that radio waves were being emitted from the center of the galaxy. In 1931 and 1932, experimental high fidelity, long playing, and even stereophonic recordings were made by the labs of the Philadelphia Orchestra, conducted by Leopold Stokowski. In 1933, stereo signals were transmitted live from Philadelphia to Washington, D.C. In 1937, the vocoder, an electronic speech compression device, or codec, and the Voder, the first electronic speech synthesizer, were developed and demonstrated by Homer Dudley, the Voder being demonstrated at the 1939 New York World's Fair. Bell researcher Clinton Davisson shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with George Paget Thomson for the discovery of electron diffraction, which helped lay the foundation for solid-state electronics.

 1931 年,Karl Jansky 在研究长距离短波通信中静电的起源时奠定了射电天文学的基础。他发现无线电波是从银河系中心发射出来的。1931 年和 1932 年,由利奥波德·斯托科夫斯基指挥的费城交响乐团的实验室制作了实验性的高保真、长时间演奏甚至立体声录音。1933 年,立体声信号从费城现场传输到华盛顿特区。 1937 年,声码器(一种电子语音压缩设备或编解码器)和 Voder(第一个电子 语音合成器),由 Homer Dudley 开发和演示,Voder 在 1939 年纽约世界博览会上演示。贝尔研究员克林顿戴维森与乔治佩吉特汤姆森分享了诺贝尔物理学奖,因为电子衍射的发现为固态电子学奠定了基础。

  Karl Jansky  是一位美国物理学家和无线电工程师,他于 1933 年 4 月首次宣布他射手座发现了从银河系发出的无线电波他被认为是射电天文学的奠基人之一
  光的衍射:
光在传播过程中,遇到障碍物或小孔时,光将偏离直线传播的路径而绕到障碍物后面传播的现象,叫光的衍射(Diffraction of light)
  电子衍射(electron diffraction): 电子衍射电子束在原子结构周围弯曲的现象。这种波的典型行为适用于电子,因为波粒二象性表明电子既是粒子又是波。由于衍射光束会发生干涉,它们会产生衍射图案,广泛用于分析引起衍射的物体。因此,电子衍射也可以参考用于材料表征的衍生实验技术。该技术类似于X 射线中子衍射.

1940s

In the early 1940s, the photovoltaic cell was developed by Russell Ohl. In 1943, Bell developed SIGSALY, the first digital scrambled speech transmission system, used by the Allies in World War II. The British wartime codebreaker Alan Turing visited the labs at this time, working on speech encryption and meeting Claude Shannon.

Bell Labs Quality Assurance Department gave the world and the United States such statisticians as Walter A. Shewhart, W. Edwards Deming, Harold F. Dodge, George D. Edwards, Harry Romig, R. L. Jones, Paul Olmstead, E.G.D. Paterson, and Mary N. Torrey. During World War II, Emergency Technical Committee – Quality Control, drawn mainly from Bell Labs' statisticians, was instrumental in advancing Army and Navy ammunition acceptance and material sampling procedures.

In 1947, the transistor, probably the most important invention developed by Bell Laboratories, was invented by John Bardeen, Walter Houser Brattain, and William Bradford Shockley (and who subsequently shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1956). In 1947, Richard Hamming invented Hamming codes for error detection and correction. For patent reasons, the result was not published until 1950. In 1948, "A Mathematical Theory of Communication", one of the founding works in information theory, was published by Claude Shannon in the Bell System Technical Journal. It built in part on earlier work in the field by Bell researchers Harry Nyquist and Ralph Hartley, but it greatly extended these. Bell Labs also introduced a series of increasingly complex calculators through the decade. Shannon was also the founder of modern cryptography with his 1949 paper Communication Theory of Secrecy Systems.

1950s

In 1952, William Gardner Pfann revealed the method of zone melting which enabled semiconductor purification and level doping.

The 1950s also saw developments based upon information theory. The central development was binary code systems. Efforts concentrated on the prime mission of supporting the Bell System with engineering advances, including the N-carrier system. TD microwave radio relay, direct distance dialing, E-repeater, wire spring relay, and the Number Five Crossbar Switching System.

In 1953, Maurice Karnaugh developed the Karnaugh map, used for managing of Boolean algebraic expressions. In 1954, the first modern solar cell was invented at Bell Laboratories. In 1956 TAT-1, the first transatlantic communications cable, was laid between Scotland and Newfoundland in a joint effort by AT&T, Bell Laboratories, and British and Canadian telephone companies. In 1957, Max Mathews created MUSIC, one of the first computer programs to play electronic music. Robert C. Prim and Joseph Kruskal developed new greedy algorithms that revolutionized computer network design. In 1958, a technical paper by Arthur Schawlow and Charles Hard Townes first described the laser. In 1959, Mohamed M. Atalla and Dawon Kahng invented the metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET).[35] The MOSFET has achieved electronic hegemony and sustains the large-scale integration (LSI) of circuits underlying today's information society.[citation needed]

1960s

 
George E. Smith and Willard Boyle
  In December 1960, Ali Javan and his associates William Bennett and Donald Heriot successfully operated the first gas laser, the first continuous-light laser, operating at an unprecedented accuracy and color purity. In 1962, the electret microphone was invented by Gerhard M. Sessler and James Edward Maceo West.
  Also in 1962, John R. Pierce's vision of communications satellites was realized by the launch of Telstar. In 1964, the Carbon dioxide laser was invented by Kumar Patel and the discovery/operation of the Nd:YAG laser was demonstrated by J.E. Geusic et al.. The research of Philip W. Anderson into electronic structure of magnetic and disordered systems led to improved understanding of metals and insulators for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1977. 
  In 1965, Penzias and Wilson discovered the cosmic microwave background, for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1978.

  Frank W. Sinden, Edward E. Zajac, Kenneth C. Knowlton, and A. Michael Noll made computer-animated movies during the early to mid-1960s. Ken C. Knowlton invented the computer animation language BEFLIX. The first digital computer art was created in 1962 by Noll. In 1966, Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), a key technology in wireless services, was developed and patented by R. W. Chang. In 1968, Molecular beam epitaxy was developed by J.R. Arthur and A.Y. Cho; molecular beam epitaxy allows semiconductor chips and laser matrices to be manufactured one atomic layer at a time. In 1969, Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson created the computer operating system UNIX for the support of telecommunication switching systems as well as general purpose computing. From 1969 to 1971, Aaron Marcus, the first graphic designer involved with computer graphics, researched, designed, and programmed a prototype interactive page-layout system for the Picturephone. In 1969, the charge-coupled device (CCD) was invented by Willard Boyle and George E. Smith, for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2009. In the 1960s, the New York City site was sold and became the Westbeth Artists Community complex.

1970s

 
The C programming language was developed in 1972.

The 1970s and 1980s saw more and more computer-related inventions at the Bell Laboratories as part of the personal computing revolution. In 1972, Dennis Ritchie developed the compiled programming language C as a replacement for the interpreted language B which was then used in a worse is better rewrite of UNIX. Also, the language AWK was designed and implemented by Alfred Aho, Peter Weinberger, and Brian Kernighan of Bell Laboratories. In 1972, Marc Rochkind invented the Source Code Control System.

In 1970, A. Michael Noll invented a tactile, force-feedback system, coupled with interactive stereoscopic computer display. In 1971, an improved task priority system for computerized telephone exchange switching systems for telephone traffic was invented by Erna Schneider Hoover, who received one of the first software patents for it. In 1976, Optical fiber systems were first tested in Georgia and in 1980, the first single-chip 32-bit microprocessor, the Bellmac 32A was demonstrated. It went into production in 1982.

The 1970s also saw a major central office technology evolve from crossbar electromechanical relay-based technology and discrete transistor logic to Bell Labs-developed thick film hybrid and transistor–transistor logic (TTL), stored program-controlled switching systems; 1A/#4 TOLL Electronic Switching Systems (ESS) and 2A Local Central Offices produced at the Bell Labs Naperville and Western Electric Lisle, Illinois facilities. This technology evolution dramatically reduced floor space needs. The new ESS also came with its own diagnostic software that needed only a switchman and several frame technicians to maintain.

   

 

1980s


BellLaboratories logo

In 1980, the TDMA and CDMA digital cellular telephone technology was patented. In 1982, Fractional quantum Hall effect was discovered by Horst Störmer and former Bell Laboratories researchers Robert B. Laughlin and Daniel C. Tsui; they consequently won a Nobel Prize in 1998 for the discovery. In 1985,[38] the programming language C++ had its first commercial release.[39]Bjarne Stroustrup started developing C++ at Bell Laboratories in 1979 as an extension to the original C language.[39]

In 1984, the first photoconductive antennas for picosecond electromagnetic radiation were demonstrated by Auston and others. This type of antenna became an important component in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. In 1984, Karmarkar's algorithm for linear programming was developed by mathematician Narendra Karmarkar. Also in 1984, a divestiture agreement signed in 1982 with the American Federal government forced the break-up of AT&T: Bellcore (now Telcordia Technologies) was split off from Bell Laboratories to provide the same R&D functions for the newly created local exchange carriers. AT&T also was limited to using the Bell trademark only in association with Bell Laboratories. Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc. became a wholly owned company of the new AT&T Technologies unit, the former Western Electric. The 5ESS Switch was developed during this transition. In 1985, laser cooling was used to slow and manipulate atoms by Steven Chu and team. In 1985, the modeling language A Mathematical Programming Language AMPL was developed by Robert Fourer, David M. Gay and Brian Kernighan at Bell Laboratories. Also in 1985, Bell Laboratories was awarded the National Medal of Technology "For contribution over decades to modern communication systems". During the 1980s, the operating system Plan 9 from Bell Labs was developed extending the UNIX model. Also, the Radiodrum, an electronic music instrument played in three space dimensions was invented. In 1988, TAT-8 became the first transatlantic fiber-optic cable. Bell Labs in Freehold, NJ developed the 1.3-micron fiber, cable, splicing, laser detector, and 280 Mbit/s repeater for 40,000 telephone-call capacity.

Arthur Ashkin invented optical tweezers that grab particles, atoms, viruses and other living cells with their laser beam fingers. A major breakthrough came in 1987, when Ashkin used the tweezers to capture living bacteria without harming them. He immediately began studying biological systems using the optical tweezers, which are now widely used to investigate the machinery of life.[40] He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics (2018) for his work involving optical tweezers and their application to biological systems.

In the early 1990s, approaches to increase modem speeds to 56K were explored at Bell Labs, and early patents were filed in 1992 by Ender Ayanoglu, Nuri R. Dagdeviren and their colleagues.[41] In 1994, the quantum cascade laser was invented by Federico Capasso, Alfred Cho, Jerome Faist and their collaborators. Also in 1994, Peter Shor devised his quantum factorization algorithm. In 1996, SCALPEL electron lithography, which prints features atoms wide on microchips, was invented by Lloyd Harriott and his team. The operating system Inferno, an update of Plan 9, was created by Dennis Ritchie with others, using the then-new concurrent programming language Limbo. A high performance database engine (Dali) was developed which became DataBlitz in its product form.[42]

In 1996, AT&T spun off Bell Laboratories, along with most of its equipment manufacturing business, into a new company named Lucent Technologies. AT&T retained a small number of researchers who made up the staff of the newly created AT&T Labs.

In 1997, the smallest then-practical transistor (60 nanometers, 182 atoms wide) was built. In 1998, the first optical router was invented.

   

 

2000s

 
Pre-2013 logo of Alcatel-Lucent, parent company of Bell Labs
 

  2000 was an active year for the Laboratories, in which DNA machine prototypes were developed; progressive geometry compression algorithm made widespread 3-D communication practical; the first electrically powered organic laser invented; a large-scale map of cosmic dark matter was compiled, and the F-15 (material), an organic material that makes plastic transistors possible, was invented.

  In 2002, physicist Jan Hendrik Schön was fired after his work was found to contain fraudulent data. It was the first known case of fraud at Bell Labs.

  In 2003, the New Jersey Institute of Technology Biomedical Engineering Laboratory was created at Murray Hill, New Jersey.

  In 2005, Jeong H. Kim, former President of Lucent's Optical Network Group, returned from academia to become the President of Bell Laboratories.

  In April 2006, Bell Laboratories' parent company, Lucent Technologies, signed a merger agreement with Alcatel. On December 1, 2006, the merged company, Alcatel-Lucent, began operations. This deal raised concerns in the United States, where Bell Laboratories works on defense contracts. A separate company, LGS Innovations, with an American board was set up to manage Bell Laboratories' and Lucent's sensitive U.S. government contracts. In March 2019, LGS Innovations was purchased by CACI.

  In December 2007, it was announced that the former Lucent Bell Laboratories and the former Alcatel Research and Innovation would be merged into one organization under the name of Bell Laboratories. This is the first period of growth following many years during which Bell Laboratories progressively lost manpower due to layoffs and spin-offs making the company shut down for a short period of time.

  As of July 2008, however, only four scientists remained in physics research, according to a report by the scientific journal Nature.

  On August 28, 2008, Al

   

  catel-Lucent announced it was pulling out of basic science, material physics, and semiconductor research, and it will instead focus on more immediately marketable areas, including networking, high-speed electronics, wireless networks, nanotechnology and software.

ClaudeShannon MFO3807.jpg
Claude Shannon Founded information theory with the publishing of A Mathematical Theory of Communication in 1948. He is perhaps equally well known for founding both digital computer and digital circuit design theory in 1937, when, as a 21-year-old master's degree student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), he wrote his thesis demonstrating that electrical applications of Boolean algebra could construct any logical, numerical relationship.[66] Shannon contributed to the field of cryptanalysis for national defense during World War II, including his basic work on codebreaking and secure telecommunications. For two months early in 1943, Shannon came into contact with the leading British cryptanalyst and mathematician Alan Turing. Shannon and Turing met at teatime in the cafeteria.[67] Turing showed Shannon his 1936 paper that defined what is now known as the "Universal Turing machine";[68][69] this impressed Shannon, as many of its ideas complemented his own.
Clinton Davisson.jpg Clinton Davisson Davisson and Lester Germer performed an experiment showing that electrons were diffracted at the surface of a crystal of nickel. This celebrated Davisson-Germer experiment confirmed the de Broglie hypothesis that particles of matter have a wave-like nature, which is a central tenet of quantum mechanics. Their observation of diffraction allowed the first measurement of a wavelength for electrons. He shared the Nobel Prize in 1937 with George Paget Thomson, who independently discovered electron diffraction at about the same time as Davisson.
