Vladimir Zworykin

1. Vladimir Kuzmich Zworykin (July 30, 1889 - July 29, 1982) was a pioneer of television technology. Zworykin invented the iconoscope, a television transmitting tube, and the kinescope, a cathode ray tube that projects pictures it receives onto a screen. He also invented an infrared image tube and helped to develop an electron microscope.

2. Zworykin lived through many historic events. Born in Murom, Russia, in 1889 to a family of a prosperous merchant, he studied at St. Petersburg Institute of Technology. He was eventually hired by one of his instructors, Boris Rosing, who was seeking ways of extending human vision. By 1907, Rosing had developed a television system which employed a mechanical disc and a very early cathode ray tube (developed in Germany by Karl Ferdinand Braun) as a receiver. The system was primitive, but it was more electronic than mechanical. Rosing and Zworykin exhibited a television system in 1910, using a mechanical scanner on the transmitter and the electronic Braun tube in the receiver. In 1912 Zworykin graduated and was allowed to continue his education in College de France, in Paris, but World War I ruined these plans.

3. Zworykin decided to leave Russia for the United States in 1919. Zworykin lost contact with Rosing during the Revolution of 1917. Rosing continued his television research until 1931 when he was exiled to Arkhangelsk ; Rosing died in exile in 1933. Zworykin carried on his work.

4. In 1919 he moved to the United States to work at the Westinghouse laboratory in Pittsburgh. In 1926 he received a Ph.D from the University of Pittsburgh. Zworykin found a job with Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Based on their pioneering efforts in radio, he tried to convince them to do research in television. Turning down an offer from Warner Brothers, Zworykin worked nights, fashioning his own crude television system. In 1923, Zworykin demonstrated his system before officials at Westinghouse and applied for a patent. All future television systems would be based on Zworykin's 1923 patent. Zworykin describes his 1923 demonstration as "scarcely impressive".

5. Zworykin continued in his off hours to perfect his system. He was so persistent that the laboratory guard was instructed to send him home at 2:00 in the morning if the lights of the laboratory were still on. During this time,. Zworykin managed to develop a more sophisticated picture tube called the Kinescope, which serves as the basis of the television display tubes in use today.
