IEEE HONORS 2000 NOBEL LAUREATE FOR ACHIEVEMENTS IN TRANSISTOR AND LASER TECHNOLOGY Herbert Kroemer to Receive IEEE Medal of Honor PISCATAWAY, N.J., 26 December - Herbert Kroemer, professor of electrical and computer engineering and of materials at the University of California, Santa Barbara, has been named 2002 recipient of the IEEE Medal of Honor. He is being honored for his pioneering work in heterostructure-based transistors and light-emitting devices. The transistor portion of Kroemer's heterostructure research played a key role in the development of the cell phone and other wireless communications technologies. Kroemer also applied the heterostructure principle to light-emitting devices, which allowed them to operate continuously at room temperature. This advance paved the way for the development of the semiconductor lasers used in CD players, fiber optics, and other applications. It is also central to non-laser light-emitting diodes (LEDs). His Nobel Prize-winning work was published in a 1963 paper, “A Proposed Class of Heterojunction Injection Lasers,” in the Proceedings of the IEEE.

The Nobel Prize in Medicine for 2000 was awarded jointly to Eric Kandel , Arvid Carlsson and Paul Greengard for their pioneering discoveries concerning "signal transduction in the nervous system". These discoveries have been crucial for an understanding of the normal function of the brain and how disturbances in this signal transduction can give rise to neurological and psychiatric diseases. These findings have resulted in the development of new drugs. Based at the Center for Neurobiology and Behavior, Columbia University, New York, Eric Kandel is rewarded, in particular, for his discoveries of how the efficiency of synapses can be modified, and which molecular mechanisms take part. With the nervous system of a sea slug as experimental model he has demonstrated how changes of synaptic function are central for learning and memory. Protein phosphorylation in synapses plays an important role for the generation of a form of short term memory. For the development of a long term memory a change in protein synthesis is also required, which can lead to alterations in shape and function of the synapse. Dr Kandel is the co-author, with Larry Squire, of the Scientific American Library title

The lecture, titled "Heterostructures for Everything?" will be presented Friday, Aug. 10, from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., in the Math 100 Auditorium. The lecture is free and open to the public. Kroemer, who shared the 2000 Nobel Prize in Physics with Jack Kilby and Zhores Alferov, was recognized by the Royal Swedish Academy for developing the semiconductor heterostructures that are used in high-speed and opto-electronics. Heterostructures are heterogeneous semiconductor structures, built in such a way that the interface between the different materials plays an essential role in the device's action. The energy gap variations act as quasi-electric forces on the electrons and holes in the structure, even in the absence of an externally applied electric field. Kroemer's conceptual work on heterostructures began in the early 1950s as he was looking for a way to improve transistor speed and performance. A decade later, he applied the same principles to the development of lasers and light-emitting diodes, showing that they could achieve continuous operation at room temperature something thought impossible at the time.

Home Colloquium Series UCLA / HSSEAS Electrical Engineering Department COLLOQUIUM SERIES Heterostructures Everywhere: From Physics to Devices and Back Dr. Herbert Kroemer Nobel Laureate (Physics) University of California, Santa Barbara Thursday, February 6, 2002 UCLA Faculty Center: Sequoia Room 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm (Reception at 3:30 pm) Abstract: Heterostructures are semicondutor structures that contain more than one semiconductor, and in which the transition between the different semiconductors plays a functional role in the operation of the device. Often, it might be said that "the interface IS the device". The underlying physics principle is that energy gap variations induce additional forces on the charge carriers, which are of quantum-mechanical origin, rather than being classical ectrostatic forces. As a result, forces on electrons and holes are no longer equal and opposite to each other, nor are they given by the classical electrostatic forces alone. These quasi-electric forces offer a new degree of freedom in device design, which is now extensively used in many "mainstream" semiconductor devices, such as heterostructure bipolar transistors, heterostructure lasers, and modulation doping in field effect transistors. Modern opto-electronics would simply not exist without heterostructure lasers.

88. Appello Dei 110 Premi Nobel http://www.iac.rm.cnr.it/~spweb/documenti/appello_premiNOBEL.html

L'appello di 110 premi Nobel La minaccia maggiore per la pace mondiale verrà negli anni a venire non dai comportamenti irrazionali di stati o individui, ma dalle legittime richieste dei diseredati del mondo. La maggioranza di queste persone povere e senza diritti vive un'esistenza marginale nei climi equatoriali. Il surriscaldamento del pianeta - originato non da loro, bensì da pochi ricchi - colpirà soprattutto le loro fragili ecologie. La loro situazione sarà disperata e manifestamente ingiusta. Perciò non ci si può attendere che essi si accontentino sempre e comunque di aspettare la beneficenza dei ricchi. Se permetteremo dunque alla potenza devastante delle armi moderne di diffondersi in questo esplosivo paesaggio umano, innescheremo una conflagrazione in grado di travolgere tanto i ricchi quanto i poveri. La sola speranza per il futuro riposa nella collaborazione internazionale, legittimata dalla democrazia. È tempo di voltare le spalle alla ricerca unilaterale di sicurezza, in cui noi cerchiamo di rifugiarci dietro ai muri. Dobbiamo invece insistere nella ricerca dell'unità d'azione per contrastare sia il surriscaldamento del pianeta che un mondo armato. Questi obiettivi gemelli costituiranno due condizioni fondamentali per la stabilità, mentre ci muoveremo verso il più ampio grado di giustizia sociale che, esso solo, può dare una speranza di pace. Alcuni degli strumenti legali necessari sono già a portata di mano, come il trattato sui missili anti-balistici (Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty), la convenzione sui cambiamenti climatici (Convention on Climate Change), i trattatti strategici sulla riduzione di armi (Strategic Arms Reduction Treaties) e il Trattato sul bando dei test nucleari (Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty). In quanto cittadini preoccupati, chiediamo a tutti i governi di impegnarsi per questi obiettivi, che costituiscono dei passi in avanti affinché il diritto prenda il posto della guerra.
