   Extractions: John Bardeen was born in Madison, Wisconsin, on May 23, 1908, son of Dr. Charles R. Bardeen, and Althea Harmer. Dr. Bardeen was Professor of Anatomy, and Dean of the Medical School of the University of Wisconsin at Madison. After the death of Althea, when John was about twelve years old, Dr. Bardeen married Ruth Hames, now Mrs. Kenelm McCauley, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. John Bardeen attended the University High School at Madison for several years, but graduated from Madison Central High School in 1923. This was followed by a course in electrical engineering at the University of Wisconsin, in which much extra work was taken in mathematics and physics. After being out for a term while working in the engineering department of the Western Electric Company at Chicago, he graduated with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering in 1928. He continued on at Wisconsin as a graduate research assistant in electrical engineering for two years, working on mathematical problems in applied geophysics and on radiation from antennas. It was during this period that he got his first introduction to quantum theory from Professor J.H. Van Vleck. Professor Leo J. Peters, under whom the research in geophysics was done, took a position at the Gulf Research Laboratories in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Bardeen followed him there and worked during the next three years (1930-1933) on the development of methods for the interpretation of magnetic and gravitational surveys. This was a stimulating period in which geophysical methods were first being applied to prospecting for oil.

   Extractions: Bardeen By courtesy of University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (b. May 23, 1908, Madison, Wis., U.S.d. Jan. 30, 1991, Boston, Mass.), American physicist who was cowinner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in both 1956 and 1972. He shared the 1956 prize with William B. Shockley and Walter H. Brattain for their joint invention of the transistor . With Leon N. Cooper and John R. Schrieffer he was awarded the 1972 prize for development of the theory of superconductivity. Bardeen earned bachelor's and master's degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Wisconsin (Madison) and obtained his doctorate in 1936 in mathematical physics from Princeton University. A staff member of the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, from 1938 to 1941, he served as principal physicist at the U.S. Naval Ordnance Laboratory in Washington, D.C., during World War II. After the war Bardeen joined (1945) the Bell Telephone Laboratories in Murray Hill, N.J., where he, Brattain, and Shockley conducted research on the electron-conducting properties of semiconductors. On Dec. 23, 1947, they unveiled the transistor, which ushered in the electronic revolution. The transistor replaced the larger and bulkier vacuum tube and provided the technology for miniaturizing the electronic switches and other components needed in the construction of computers. In the early 1950s Bardeen resumed research he had begun in the 1930s on superconductivity, and his Nobel Prize-winning investigations provided a theoretical explanation of the disappearance of electrical resistance in materials at temperatures close to absolute zero.

    Extractions: Shockley, Bardeen, and Brattain at Bell Labs. John Bardeen, 1973 Part 3 ( Allowed to Follow His Own Path The University of Illinois lured John Bardeen with the one thing he wanted most — the right to research whatever he wanted. Bardeen decided to work on superconductivity, which had begun to interest him in his last days at Bell Labs. The Nobel Prize On the morning of Thursday, November 1, 1956, John Bardeen was making breakfast and listening to the radio. As he scrambled his eggs, he heard a newscaster announce that the Nobel Prize in physics had been awarded to him, Brattain, and Shockley for the invention of the transistor. Bardeen dropped the frying pan and ran into the bedroom to tell his wife Jane the news. The Nobel ceremony took place in Sweden on the evening of Monday, December 10. Shockley arrived late, with his wife and mother in tow. Bardeen and Brattain spent the time together getting ready. Bardeen had to borrow an extra white vest and white tie for his formal suit from Brattain since Bardeen's had turned green at the laundry. Then the nervous pair shared a bottle of quinine to settle their stomachs. They received their awards that night from King Gustav VI and then adjourned for a great banquet in their honor. After dinner, Brattain, Bardeen, their families, and Swedish friends sat around a table at their hotel celebrating. Towards the end of the night, Shockley walked in and was invited to join the party. For one night, the group was together again. The three men remembered the days when they had been friends and a phenomenal research team.

More than a generation of mountaineers had toiled to establish that base. Your assault on the semiconductor problem was likewise launched from a high altitude camp, contributed by many scientists. Yours, too, was a supreme effort of foresight, ingenuity and perseverance exercised individually and as a team." Erik Rudberg to the inventors of the transistor, during the Nobel Prize Award ceremonies. "As Bardeen and Brattain were having drinks with their hosts in the hotel bar, they noticed Shockley and his wife coming in after all the festivities were over. And they invited him to come on over and share a few drinks with them, and it seemed at that point that all of the hard feelings of the past years had kind of evaporated. They were the heroes in Valhalla. They were the gods of the field. And a lot of the ill feelings began to melt away." Michael Riordan , interview for "Transistorized!"

    Extractions: Photo by Bill Wiegand In a new bioraphy of two-time Nobelist John Bardeen, University of Illinois historian Lillian Hoddeson asks readers to disabuse themselves of the widely held notions about what does or does not constitute "true genius." CHAMPAIGN, Ill. Americans take verbal shortcuts to say someone is intellectually underwhelming he's no brain surgeon ... no rocket scientist ...no Einstein. These shortcuts imply that people know a genius when they see one. Most expect a man with superhuman gifts, who is self-taught and unbalanced maybe a bit mad and is, in addition, a recluse whose relationships with people are troubled. Think of John Nash, the mathematician who won a Nobel Prize in economics, or Will Hunting, the fictional character portrayed in the movie "Good Will Hunting."

Co-inventor of the transistor in 1947 with John Bardeen and Walter Brattain, Shockley participated in one of the most important discoveries of the century. After receiving the Nobel Prize in 1956, disenchantment with Shockley's management style and his propensity for pure research led to the defection of the "Fairchild Eight" in 1957, and the deterioration of his company. His controversial views on genetics and his racist theories have shocked the society around him, but he has continued his research into "grave world problems".
