Who shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with German inventor Karl Ferdinand Braun in recognition of their contribution to the development of wireless telegraphy?
Karl Ferdinand Braun Karl Ferdinand Braun Prize, awarded for an outstanding technical achievement in display technology. Karl Ferdinand Braun Karl Ferdinand Braun (6 June 1850 – 20 April 1918) was a German inventor, physicist and Nobel laureate in physics. Braun contributed significantly to the development of radio and television technology: he shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Guglielmo Marconi "for their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy". Braun was born in Fulda, Germany, and educated at the University of Marburg and received a Ph.D. from the University of Berlin in 1872. In 1874 he discovered that a point-contact semiconductor rectifies
Ferdinand-Braun-Institut Prize for physics in 1909 for his contributions on the development of wireless telegraphy. The Ferdinand-Braun-Institute explores technologies in the fields of microwaves and optoelectronics. The activities are based on III-V semiconductor technology and are focused on applications in information- and communications technology, in sensors as well as in laser technology. Emphasis is given in microwave technology to the design and fabrication of transistors and integrated microwave circuits, in optoelectronics to high-power laser diodes, high brilliance lasers and hybrid-integrated laser systems. The FBH is organized in the following business areas: Services from the FBH comprise e.g. prototyping of electronical and
