Laughlin, Robert B. EARLY YEARS Another important aspect of our home was respect for ideas. At dinnertime one of my parents, usually my father, would lead a discussion about some controversial matter, such as racial integration of schools, whether John Lennon should have compared himself with Jesus Christ, support of Israel, or the morality of the Vietnam war, and all of us were expected to air and defend our views on these things, even if we did not want to. Over the course of time this gave us a deep respect for ideas, both our own and those of others, and an understanding that conflict through debate is a powerful means of revealing truth. This was, of course, before any of us understood rhetoric and how easily it can be misused. But the need for conflict to expose prejudice and unclear reasoning, which is deeply embedded in my philosophy of science, has its origin in these debates. BERKELEY MILITARY While at Fort Sill I met, or more precisely was grouped with, the people who were to be my companions for the rest of my tour in the military. They were a very personable bunch mostly from the upper Middle West, Pennsylvania, and Nebraska, and rather like a selection of the smarter students from my high school, except that the contingent from Detroit was rabidly racist, something that I had never encountered before and still have trouble understanding. Getting to know these people was my first of many reminders that the world is full of intelligent, well-meaning people who, for one reason or another, did not attend university but are nonetheless well-read and educated. Out there on the prairie lost opportunities of youth were the rule rather than the exception, and I slowly became disabused of the myth of the Bright Young Thing and have not believed in it since.

The video documentation subsequently formed the core of the Nobel Voices Video History Project and the exhibition Nobel Voices: Celebrating 100 Years of the Nobel Prize . The interviewees were asked about their motivations, visions for the future, and opinions on the nature of creativity and innovation. In the interviews, the laureates speak about their passion for their work, their childhood inspirations, the spirit of discovery, and the personal meaning of the Nobel Prize.

Laughlin and the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect Photo Courtesy of LLNL Resources with Additional Information Robert B. Laughlin shared the 1998 Nobel Prize in Physics Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory , provided the theoretical explanation of the effect in terms of fractionally charged particles. It was a "confluence of things from engineering that prepared me for understanding the fractional quantum Hall effect and coming up with an explanation," Laughlin said during a television interview at Stanford. ... This discovery came as a great surprise. It was known from the outset that the fractional quantum Hall effect could not be explained without dealing with inter-electron interactions in the sample. Initially, a theoretical explanation was not forthcoming. In 1983, Laughlin developed a theoretical picture of the phenomenon, even writing down an explicit multi-particle wave function. His theory predicted that the fractional quantum Hall effect was caused by the capture of an odd-number of fundamental units of magnetic flux by each electron, as opposed to a single unit of flux in the integer quantum Hall effect.' 'Laughlin's theory predicted a new form of quantum-mechanical fluid. He also predicted that the elementary excitations of the fluid involve pseudo-particle charge carriers with charges that are fractions of the electronic charge.'

(1950-), an American theoretical physicist, shared the 1998 Nobel Prize in physics with Horst Ludwig Störmer of Germany and Daniel Chee Tsui of the United States for their discovery of a new form of fluid called a quantum fluid. It was Laughlin, the theorist, who analyzed the results of their experiments and explained a baffling phenomenon called the fractional quantum Hall effect. In this phenomenon, it seemed that electrons—the particles making up electric currents—had been divided into parts. Laughlin showed that, in reality, the electrons coordinated their movements in a way that simulated the behavior of particles with fractional charges. The original Hall effect had been discovered in 1879 by the American physicist Edwin H. Hall. When an electric current flows in an electrical conductor through which a magnetic field passes, the electrons (or other carriers of charge) feel a force from the magnetic field that makes them pile up on one side of the conductor. The piling up of electrons causes a sideways voltage across the wire, called the Hall voltage. The Hall voltage increases as the applied magnetic field is increased. The effect is of great practical importance because, among other things, it enables the number of charge carriers in a volume of the material to be measured.
