  • Abstract
    Devices dependent upon such results of quantization as plasmas, semiconduction, or individual energy-level transitions now occupy a diverse and important position within the broad scope of electrical engineering. Their further development requires a thorough understanding of quantum theory on the part of device research and development engineers. To meet this need, many departments of electrical engineering may soon find it necessary to offer their own courses in quantum theory, just as they did in electromagnetic field theory after World War II.
