I was born on a bitter cold morning (20º F below zero) in Sioux City (Iowa) on January 22, 1936. I was told that when my father went out in the cold that morning to go to the hospital to visit his wife and newborn first son, his car would not start. Despite advice to the contrary, he walked to the hospital; his ears were frostbitten on the way. The Heeger family came to Sioux City (Iowa) from Russia as Jewish immigrants in 1904 when my father was a small boy (age 4). My mother was born in Omaha (Nebraska); she was a first generation child of Jewish immigrants. My mother and father were married in the midst of the Great Depression. My early years were spent in Akron (Iowa), a small midwestern town of 1000 people, approximately 35 miles from Sioux City. I went to elementary school in Akron. My brother, Gerald, was born in Akron. My father was the manager and, subsequently the owner, of a general store that served the local farming community. I have a strong memory of the day I was told that my father had a weak heart and that he had to go to the hospital. He died when I was nine years old on the same day that Franklin Roosevelt died; it was his 45th birthday. After my father's death, we moved to Omaha, so my mother could be closer to her family. She raised us as a single parent in a house that we shared with her sister and her sister's children.

Alan J. Heeger
Professor, Physics and Materials A lan J. Heeger won the 2000 Nobel Prize in chemistry with two other scientists for the discovery and development of electrically conducting polymers, and he continues his laboratory research at UCSB. He believes that the key to future progress in the sciences is in interdisciplinary collaborations. Heeger is also chief scientist for UNIAX, a company he founded that was acquired last year by Dupont. It focuses on the uses of plastic electronics commercial products. In 1977 Heeger and his colleagues discovered conducting polymers, a novel class of materials with electrical and optical properties like metals and semiconductors coupled with the mechanical and processing advantages of polymers. Applications of work by Heeger and his associates include conducting polymer blends for electromagnetic shielding and for antistatic packaging, and semiconducting polymers for use in the emerging field of plastic electronic devices, which already include diodes. “Even though I received the Nobel Prize in chemistry,” he says, “I still think like a physicist.”

ALAN J. HEEGER
Born: Sioux City, IA, January 22, 1936
Alan J. Heeger and his colleagues discovered conducting polymers, a novel class of materials with electrical and optical properties like metals and semiconductors, coupled with the mechanical and processing advantages of polymers. They won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2000 "for the discovery and development of conductive polymers". 1936-1962: Education
1957 - B.S. with High Distinction, University of Nebraska
1961 - Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley
ALAN J. HEEGER was raised in Nebraska, whence he had come from his hometown of Sioux City, Iowa. Here he took an early interest in science and mathematics. "I didn't find it particularly easy," he said. "In fact, that was part of the reason I wanted to go farther with it. There must be something here I can understand." He went to the University of Nebraska for his undergraduate studies, where he picked engineering as his major - for one quarter. With no experience in the subject, he changed his major to physics. But something bothered him. "Somehow," he said, "I always felt this wasn't the real stuff yet, and I was looking forward to graduate school for that." Intellectually curious, he early attracted attention in the physics department. Retired physics professors today recall him as "outstanding", "enthusiastic"; even teachers he did not know knew of him. As a graduate student at UC Berkeley, Heeger got his chance. "I remember the first day in the laboratory," he said. "The courses are very important, but I just didn't feel I was really doing science until I was doing my own science, and that was such a thrill for me. I got a big kick out of it."

November 2000 Edition Send News to photonics@laurin.com or submit online here Sponsored by: Chemists Win Nobel for Optical Polymers The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to Alan J. Heeger, Alan G. MacDiarmid and Hideki Shirakawa. The researchers are being honored for their work with conductive polymers, paving the way for organic electroluminescent display technology. Conductive plastic films have found applications in reducing static electricity and interference on computer screens and photographic film. At the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia in the early 1970s, Heeger, MacDiarmid and Shirakawa discovered that they could increase the conductivity of a form of polyacetylene a billion times by doping it with iodine. In 1990, Heeger went on to found Uniax Corp. of Santa Barbara, Calif., which investigated the development of organic LED devices.

Alan J. Heeger
Alan J. Heeger
Alan Heeger won the 2000 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his pioneering work in conducting polymers. He is Professor of Physics and Material (Engineering) at UCSB. His current interests are focused on light emission from semiconducting polymers, including photoluminescence, light-emitting diodes, light-emitting electrochemical cells, and lasers. Dr. Heeger was the Founder of Uniax Corporation, which commercialized his work on conductive polymers, and has subsequently been sold to DuPont. Prior to going to UCSB in 1982, Dr. Heeger had been a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania from 1967-1982, and had been an associate professor from 1962. During that period, he also served from 1978-81 as the Director, Laboratory for Research on the Structure of Matter, at the University of Pennsylvania and from 1981-82, served as the Acting Vice-Provost for Research, University of Pennsylvania.

    AND FORMER PENN PHYSICIST ALAN J. HEEGER ARE AMONG THREE WINNERS OF THE 2000 NOBEL PRIZE IN CHEMISTRY
    "This is indeed a moment for great joy and celebration, as we join the Nobel committee in acknowledging the achievements of an outstanding researcher and faculty member," said Penn President Judith Rodin. "This pathbreaking research into ‘conducting polymers,’ that is, plastics that can conduct electricity, introduced a new and completely unexpected phenomenon to the fields of chemistry and physics and has unleashed a flood of interdisciplinary studies which have continued unabated to this day. "Alan MacDiarmid is a truly extraordinary scientist and we offer him and his colleagues our deepest and most heartfelt congratulations." Polymers are molecular chains with a regularly repeating structure. For a polymer to conduct electric current, it must consist alternately of single and double bonds between the carbon atoms. It must also be "doped," which means that electrons are removed (through oxidation) or introduced (through reduction). These "holes," or extra electrons, can move along the molecule, making it electrically conductive. Drs. MacDiarmid, Heeger, and Shirakawa were responsible for the 1977 synthesis and the electrical and chemical doping of polyacetylene, the prototypical conducting polymer, and the rediscovery of polyaniline, now the foremost industrial conducting polymer.

    Nobel Laureates Hideki Shirakawa Alan MacDiarmid and Alan J. Heeger before last week's Symposium to Celebrate the 2000 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Hundreds of scientists from around the world gathered at LRSM to hear each of the Nobelists lecture on Friday morning. That afternoon's session and the Saturday sessions featured leading scientists from academia and industry who spoke about synthesis and properties of conductive polymers and the theory and related technological advances spawned by the Nobel Prize-winning research that was a collaborative interdisciplinary effort.
    Alan MacDiarmid
    As a chemist with distinguished research accomplishments in inorganic and materials chemistry, you had the vision to foresee the possibility of making organic polymers conduct electricity, resulting in the discovery and development of the new class of material "Conducting Polymers". As a member of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Pennsylvania since 1955 you made fundamental contributions to the chemistry of silicon and transition metals prior to your discovery of polymer conductivity in 1977. In collaboration with Hideki Shirakawa and colleague physicist Alan Heeger, you demonstrated that the organic polymer, polyacetylene, could be chemically doped to exhibit metallic properties, thus discovering a phenomenon completely new and unexpected to both the chemistry and physics communities.
