Richard Makinson

Richard Elliss Bodenham Makinson (5 May 1913 – 15 January 1979), also R.E.B. or Dick Makinson, was an Australian physicist known for his contributions to solid-state physics and amorphous semiconductors. Makinson contributed to the understanding of thermal conductivity in crystals. His work in this area is cited in the classical book Introduction to Solid State Physics by Charles Kittel. He also contributed to the physics of amorphous semiconductors. This research is cited in the book Quantum Electron Theory of Amorphous Conductors.
