释义 | Shockley, William B.Shockley, William B. (Bradford)(1910–89) physicist; born in London, England (of American parents). He worked at Bell Telephone Laboratories (1936–42), then performed antisubmarine research at Columbia University (1942–44) and the War Department (1944–45). Returning to Bell (1945–54), he collaborated with J. Bardeen and W. Brattain to invent the transistor, for which the three shared the 1956 Nobel Prize in physics. Shockley worked at Beckmann Instruments (1955–58), then founded Shockley Transistor (1958–63) before joining Stanford (1963–74).
