What a success story! I wish he was successful in compensation side in Japan, but I guess they lost him because of that. Happy to see him thrive now.

In the mid 1990s, I was working in a research lab where we were in competition with Nichia in the development of GaN blue LED and lasers, also using our home-grown MOCVD machines. Dr. Nakamura was always 2 (or more!) steps ahead of us. I still vividly remember when we got our hands on a prototype of his deep blue LEDs after a conference. We turned it on in the lab, with lights down, expecting a weak blue emission, as we got from our own devices. It came on so bright and so blue, it illuminated the whole room! It blew our mind, we couldnāt believe it. How had he done that? He was the blue LED magician. Nobel prize well deserved, and then some.

Even though it's frustrating that he wasn't compensated properly, I appreciate you taking the time to spread this man's story. He deserves it.

So he was underfunded, underappreciated and undersold, yet he almost single-handedly created one of the most important technologies in the modern world, a true legend. And I got to learn his story from an interesting, high quality source. Thanks again Derek

I'm so glad this story didn't end with "and then he died penniless and alone" because it feels like so many of these stories often do. Warms my heart to see him alive and recognized for his genius and thriving still!

Mr. Nakamura is a hidden giant everyone should know more about. Incredible tenacity and great video.

This is probably the best illustration of what makes a conductor, insulator, and semiconductor that I've ever seen. Bravo, Veritasium! My hat is off to you!

I came here to learn why blue was so difficult to makeā¦ I didnāt know this was the story of a man who discovered a landmark piece of technology. Just the thought of him staring at a small blue light, completely understanding it was his lifeās work and his masterpiece. True happiness in a blue glow.

Donāt ever go back making ātelevisionā. This is so much better. A great story from beginning to end with a spectacular entry of the main character. No spoilers, no previews. YouTube at its best. TV will never reach this level of storytelling. Hats off to your illustrator too.

Itās so dumb how itās never just āthis guy changed the world and got compensated fairly for itā thereās always some corporate bs in the way

Thank you for your commitment to informing the public about science and technology in general, and physics in particular. I would like to support you for taking your time and effort doing so! Your content contributions are always greatly appreciated! Regards Greg Scopel

I have a PhD in physical chemistry, studying the energy levels of semiconductors, and I've never heard as concise and clear explanation of semiconductors from any of the courses I've taken, and then that information is made tangible in this human story. Great story telling, great science communication, great animations. I absolutely love your videos.

Everything else aside, your explanation of semiconductors & the stadium seats synergy made this complex topic so easy to understand. I hope they show this in schools.

I absolutely love the way Nakamura walks while wildly swinging his hands.

I am a electrician and after 15 years of experience, your are the first one, that could explain me N- and P-type transistors. Thank you.

This video is literally golden, I was focused the whole time, not a single minute was boring. I have learn huge amount of information, but not too much. This should be shown in schools.

Can we appretiate how Nakemura basically changed the world and yet he seems to be so humble ?
1.2K |
It must be insane being him and being able to look at so many things and go "that is directly the result of MY work and research", that's so awesome.
1.8K |
Even with decades of work under his belt, he still oozes infinite enthusiasm.

One of the greatest examples of how we only see the end result of hard work.
My man worked 84 hour weeks for over 18 months just to hit the first clue that he was on the right path. That's a level of tenacity that I cannot help but admire.
