Описание: William Shockley Jr. (1910–1989) was an American inventor, physicist, and eugenicist. He was the manager of a research group at Bell Labs that included John Bardeen and Walter Brattain. The three scientists were jointly awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics for "their researches on semiconductors and their discovery of the transistor effect" Shockley had in 1956 recruited a group of eight young PhD graduates with the goal to develop and produce new semiconductor devices. While Shockley was an experienced researcher and teacher, his management of the group was authoritarian and unpopular. This was accentuated by Shockley's research focus not proving fruitful. After the demand for Shockley to be replaced was rebuffed, the eight left to form their own company, Fairchild Semiconductor. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Shockley Chip War: The Fight for the World’s Most Critical Technology is a 2022 nonfiction book written by Chris Miller, an economic historian.
