Close Please copy/paste the following text to properly cite this HowStuffWorks article: Shockley, William (1910 - 1989) was an American physicist. He received the 1956 Nobel Prize in physics for inventing the transistor, a tiny device that controls the flow of electric current in radios, television sets, computers, and almost every other kind of electronic equipment. Shockley shared the prize with two members of his research staff, the American physicists John Bardeen and Walter Houser Brattain. In the early 1970's, Shockley's views on race and intelligence sparked much controversy. He claimed that heredity, rather than environment, was mainly responsible for whites generally scoring higher than blacks on intelligence tests. Most geneticists and psychologists disagreed with this theory. William Bradford Shockley was born on Feb. 13, 1910, in London. His parents were Americans working in England. His father, William Hillman Shockley, was a mining engineer. His mother, May (Bradford) Shockley, was a mineral surveyor. The family returned to the United States in 1913 and lived in Palo Alto, California. Shock-ley's early interest in science was encouraged by his parents and by a neighbor who was a physics professor at nearby Stanford University. As a child, Shockley was first educated at home. He later attended Palo Alto Military Academy and then Hollywood High School, from which he graduated in 1927.

His father was a mining engineer and his mother a federal deputy surveyor of mineral lands. They returned to California when William was a toddler. His interest in science was encouraged from early on, through his parents' professions and by a neighbor who taught physics at Stanford. He graduated from Cal Tech in 1932 and then received his PhD from MIT in 1936. He began work immediately at Bell Labs. His research in solid state physics, especially vacuum tubes, made many theoretical advances in the company's goal to use electronic switches for telephone exchanges instead of the mechanical switches used up until then. During World War II, Shockley worked on military projects, particularly refining radar systems. As soon as the war ended, he was back doing solid-state research, now investigating semiconductors. One of his major contributions to the electronics industry was to apply quantum theory to the development of semiconductors. In 1947, with colleagues John Bardeen and Walter Brattain, he made the first successful amplifying semiconductor device. They called it a

Shockley, William Bradford US physicist, who developed the junction transistor from the point-contact transistor. He was awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize for Physics. The son of a mining engineer, Shockley was educated at the California Institute of Technology and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he gained his PhD in 1936. He immediately joined the research staff of Bell Telephone Laboratories and in 1953 became director of the transistor physics department. Shockley also became connected with a number of private companies all concerned with the commercial exploitation of the transistor. In 1963 he was appointed to the Poniatoff Professorship of Electrical Engineering at Stanford, remaining a consultant with Bell until he retired from both positions in 1975. In 1947 Shockley's colleagues at Bell, J. Bardeen and W. J. Brattain, invented the point-contact transistor. This, however, was a theoretical rather than a practical breakthrough. Shortly afterwards Shockley developed the more practical junction transistor, which transformed the electronics industry. Shockley shared his Nobel Prize with Bardeen and Brattain. Subsequently Shockley argued his minority views on genetics, gaining considerable publicity. Believing that blacks are less intelligent than whites, and that the current population explosion is spreading 'bad' genes at the expense of 'good', Shockley enthusiastically supported such schemes as a sperm bank produced by Nobel prizewinners, restrictions on mixed marriages, and voluntary sterilization.
