This remarkable individual could, without special training, compete with the well-funded establishments of learning and industry in the second half of the last century and leave us an incredible legacy of brilliant innovations with a lasting impact on our lives. His achievements extend over amazingly diverse fields and have or are prone to create new industries of great societal value.The phase change memories of commonly used rewritable CDs and DVDs as well as of 606 $aAmorphous semiconductors 606 $aSolar energy 606 $aPhotovoltaic power generation 606 $aHydrogen as fuel 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAmorphous semiconductors. 615 0$aSolar energy. 615 0$aPhotovoltaic power generation. 615 0$aHydrogen as fuel. 676 $a537.622 700 $aOvshinsky$b Stanford R$044182 701 $aFritzsche$b Hellmut$044181 701 $aSchwartz$b Brian B.$f1938-$0968122 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454781103321 996 $aStanford R.
