Famous Scientists of Uzbekistan
Soviet, Uzbek scientist, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Research Professor at the Institute of Nanotechnology and Associate Professor at the Physics Department of the School of Science and Mathematics at the University of Texas at Dallas. In 2011, he was named "Inventor of the Year" by Time magazine.
Arifov Atanazar
Uzbek Soviet experimental physicist. Author and editor of many scientific papers. Created a method for determining the anisotropy time of liquids.
This method was later used to study solutes in liquids, especially in solvents and dyes.
Karimov Abdulazis Vakhitovich. Soviet Uzbek scientist, physicist, doctor of physical and mathematical sciences, professor. In particular, he worked on semiconductors and physical and mathematical research. Author of more than 450 articles and up to 40 inventions. One of the patents is a method for epitaxial growth of semiconductor materials by mixing melt solutions.
Usmanov Timurbek Bekmuradovich. Uzbek physicist, academician of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan. 400 scientific articles, 16 patents. Scientist in the field of laser physics and technology, nonlinear optics and spectroscopy. He was one of the first to obtain an effective harmonic of laser radiation and a high level of light generation. Further, Timurbek Bekmuradovich created laser systems, which are widely used in many areas.
Turakulov Yalkin Khalmatovich. Scientist biologist, laureate of the Lenin Prize in 1964. He created and managed several Uzbek institutes, mainly medical ones.
Great Inventions
PAPER – invented about 100 BC in China, paper has been indispensible in allowing us to write down and share our ideas.
GUNPOWDER – this chemical explosive, invented in China in the 9th century, has been a major factor in military technology (and, by extension, in wars that changed the course of human history).
PRINTING PRESS – invented in 1439 by the German Johannes Gutenberg, this device in many ways laid the foundation for our modern age. It allowed ink to be transferred from the movable type to paper in a mechanized way. This revolutionized the spread of knowledge and religion as previously books were generally hand-written (often by monks). ELECTRICITY – utilization of electricity is a process to which a number of bright minds have contributed over thousands of years, going all the way back to Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece, when Thales of Miletus conducted the earliest research into the phenomenon. The 18th-century American Renaissance man Benjamin Franklin is generally credited with significantly furthering our understanding of electricity, if not its discovery. It’s hard to overestimate how important electricity has become to humanity as it runs the majority of our gadgetry and shapes our way of life. The invention of the light bulb, although a separate contribution, attributed to Thomas Edison in 1879, is certainly a major extension of the ability to harness electricity. It has profoundly changed the way we live, work as well as the look and functioning of our cities.
