Hans Rukop (born February 27, 1883 in Klausberg / Mikulczyce near Zabrze , Upper Silesia ; † August 3, 1958 in Ulm ) was a German high-frequency technician .
Life
His parents were the rent manager Theodor Rukop (1843–94) and Emma, geb. Wider (1859-1926). From 1902 he studied mathematics and physics at the University of Breslau and from 1906 chemistry in Greifswald . During his studies he became a member of the Arminia Breslau fraternity in 1903 ; later also a member of the Germania Berlin fraternity . He became a doctoral student with Gustav Mie , who hired him as a second assistant in 1910. In 1911 he went to the Technical University of Gdansk to Jonathan Zenneck and worked on arc generators and high frequency machines. He received his doctorate from Mie in 1912 with the dissertation “Spectrum of water with slightly dampened vibrations of 65 to 20 cm wavelength caused by shock excitation”.
In 1913 he followed Zenneck to the TH Munich . In 1914, he began working for the Gesellschaft für wireless Telegraphie mbH, System Telefunken, in Berlin , where he initially set up a laboratory for electron tubes . He overcame the disadvantages of loved ones - tube and Fleming - diode and created some small fabrications of electron tubes before a larger production facility in the summer of 1917 in the building for Telefunken Friedrichstrasse built 235 in Berlin-Kreuzberg. In 1923 he married Ellen Tilsen. In 1925 he became head of all Telefunken laboratories. In 1927 he was appointed professor at the new Institute for Technical Physics at the University of Cologne . Here he worked on the research of television, the transmission of messages with ultra-short and decimeter waves and on the first attempts at radar and radio measurement technology . In 1933 he changed to the Telefunken management. After the Second World War he worked in Ulm until 1950, where Telefunken had relocated new manufacturers of amplifier and picture tubes .
He was one of the editors of the journal for technical physics .
