Bridgman, Percy Williams US physicist. His research into machinery producing high pressure led in 1955 to the creation of synthetic diamonds by General Electric. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics 1946. Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, he was educated at Harvard, where he spent his entire academic career. Bridgman's experimental work on static high pressure began in 1908, and because this field of research had not been explored before, he had to invent much of his own equipment; for example, a seal in which the pressure in the gasket always exceeds that in the pressurized fluid. The result is that the closure is self-sealing. His discoveries included new, high-pressure forms of ice. His technique for synthesizing diamonds was used to synthesize many more minerals and a new school of geology developed, based on experimental work at high pressure and temperature. Because the pressures and temperatures that Bridgman achieved simulated those deep below the ground, his discoveries gave an insight into the geophysical processes that take place within the Earth. His book Physics of High Pressure 1931 still remains a basic work.

Percy Williams Bridgman Percy Williams Bridgman April 21 August 20 ) was an American physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the physics of high pressures. Bridgman was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts . He entered Harvard University in 1900, studying physics , and from he began teaching at Harvard, finally as a professor from . He had, in 1905, begun undertaking research regarding certain phenomena under the influence of pressure. Due to a machinery malfunction, he modified his pressure apparatus, and the result was that he had invented a new piece of machinery that would enable him to create pressures up to and above 100,000 kg Bridgman seal . With this new apparatus a plethora of new research was investigated, including research into the effect of pressure on electrical resistance, and solid and fluid conditions under pressure. Brigman is known also for his studies of electrical conduction in metals and properties of crystals and for his writings on the philosophy of modern science.
