Jack St. Clair Kilby
Semiconductor Engineer
A semiconductor engineer who was the first in the world to propose and corroborate the fundamental concept of the monolithic semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) that laid the foundation for today’s leading-edge technology of the LSI and VLSI chips. Further, he contributed greatly to the early stage of monolithic IC development and its practical application. His pioneering contribution is a great asset to the development of microelectronics.
