Charles H. Townes Physicist and Nobel laureate, 86, Berkeley, California Interviewed by Scott Carrier December 2001, Volume 136, Issue 6 Photograph by Dan Winters Science is exploration. The fundamental nature of exploration is that we don't know what's there. We can guess and hope and aim to find out certain things, but we have to expect surprises. Look at Columbus: He was aiming for India. Well, he missed it. He found something else. Listen to other people, but don't necessarily follow them. God is very difficult to define, but I feel his presence. I feel an omnipresence everywhere and something, at the same time, rather personal. In religion, people talk about revelations. In science you find many revelations, too, it's just that people don't talk about them that way. When the idea for the laser came to me, I was sitting on a park bench thinking, Now, why haven't I been able to do this? Suddenly a new idea comes to me, a new creation. Where did it come from? Did God give me this idea? Who knows? I didn't suddenly have a view of God's face, if that's what you mean. In science we just don't talk about it much. You say, Well, I had an idea.

CHARLES HARD TOWNES (n. 1915) El físico norteamericano Charles Townes nació en la ciudad de Greeville, Carolina del Norte, en 1915. Ahí mismo se graduó en física en la Universidad de Furman en 1935. Obtuvo su maestría en la Universidad de Duke, pero se trasladó al Instituto de Tecnología de California para hacer su doctorado, que obtuvo en 1939.

Bell Labs and Lucent's Contributions to Laser Research Comments? Contact the webmaster Schawlow and Townes Invent the Laser The invention of the laser, which stands for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation, can be dated to 1958 with the publication of the scientific paper, Infrared and Optical Masers , by Arthur L. Schawlow, then a Bell Labs researcher, and Charles H. Townes, a consultant to Bell Labs. That paper, published in Physical Review , the journal of the American Physical Society, launched a new scientific field and opened the door to a multibillion-dollar industry. The work of Schawlow and Townes, however, can be traced back to the 1940s and early 50s and their interest in the field of microwave spectroscopy, which had emerged as a powerful tool for puzzling out the characteristics of a wide variety of molecules. Neither man was planning on inventing a device that would revolutionize a number of industries, from communications to medicine. They had something more straightforward in mind, developing a device to help them study molecular structures. The beginnings at Bell Labs Townes, armed with a Ph.D. degree in physics from the California Institute of Technology, joined Bell Labs in 1939, where he worked on a variety of problems, including microwave generation, vacuum tubes, and magnetics. He then moved on to solid-state physics, studying electron emissions from surfaces.

CHARLES TOWNES CENTER - COMMEMORATIVE GALLERY Charles H. Townes, physicist and Nobel laureate, began his life and career in South Carolina. He played the major role in the development of the laser, one of science's greatest accomplishments. Townes finished Greenville High School at 15. He graduated summa cum laude from Furman University, in 1935, with degrees in physics and modern languages. He took an active interest in the university's museum. Townes did graduate work at Duke University. In 1939, he earned his doctorate in physics from California Institute of Technology. The many pictures and displays in the Charles Townes Center - Commemorative Gallery detail the rich and productive life of one of South Carolina's leading scientist. Charles Townes married Francis H. Brown in 1941 while he as a research physicist at Bell Laboratories. In the early 1950s, he was a professor of physics at Columbia University and was doing the spectroscopy research that would lead to the invention of the maser. In 1959, while still at Columbia University, he was awarded the patent for the maser and in 1960, with Arthur Schawlow, the first laser patent. A leading research scientist, Townes, was also a dynamic teacher. Many of his students have earned acclaim in physics research. In the 1960s, while at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Townes, along with his colleague Ali Javan, worked with experimental equipment that tested the theory of relativity using rotating lasers. Before going to MIT, Townes, spent two years in Washington as director or research at the Institute for Defense Analyses. In the mid-1960s, Townes served as a member of the President's Science Advisory Committee, during the Lyndon Johnson administration. Townes has served on presidential advisory committees since the late 1950s. In 1967 Townes became a professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley.

Main July 26, 2003 Charles H. Townes Charles H. Townes was born in Greenville, South Carolina, on July 28, 1915. He received a B.A. and a B.S. from Furman University in 1935. In 1937, he received an M.A. from Duke University . He finished his Ph.D. in 1939 at Cal Tech and went to work for Bell Labs in New York City. He helped work on radar bombing systems during World War Two. Townes later becomes a professor at Columbia University. While there he comes up with the concept of a maser and meets Arthur L. Schawlow. Townes built the first maser in 1953. In 1957, he began work, along with Schawlow, on the laser. In 1960, they received a patent for the laser and the first one is built at Hughes Aircraft Company using a ruby. In 1964, Townes, along with A. Prokhorov and N. Basov, shared the Nobel Prize for Physics. Townes taught at MIT and served as Vice President of the Institute for Defense Analysis. He has remained on the lecture circuit as recently as the past five years. TrackBack Comments Post a comment Name: Email Address: URL: Remember personal info?
