I joined Stanford as an Assistant Professor in 1957 to set up a Low Temperature Laboratory and to install a Collins Helium Liquefier. to provide LHe on the Stanford Campus. I became interested in superconductivity - proposed a route to high temperature superconductivity, superconductivity in organic materials and polymers. All of which panned out in the next 50 years. I taught many of the large classes in the Engineering oriented series and to the Pre-Meds - with some success. Retired from teaching in 1994 having started my own Company, MMR Technologies, Inc. that provides micro-miniature refrigerators for researchers and a new class of cryogenic coolers - one of which has yielded an Espresso-like machine for liquefying and dispensing Liquid Nitrogen - ice-cream anybody?
