Overview and metadata sections

Kenneth R. Shoulders was an American electronics engineer, experimental physicist, and inventor. Born in Texas on March 7, 1927, Shoulders was a 1944 graduate of North Dallas High School in Dallas, Texas. After graduating from high school, he went to work in the electronics industry and gained over ten years of formative research and development experience with a number of electronics firms between the mid 1940s and mid 1950s, including Maganavox Company, Texas Instruments, Incorporated, and Collins Radio Company.

From 1955 to 1958, Shoulders served as a Research Staff Member at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he became a noted pioneer in microelectronics. While working at MIT's Computer Components and Systems Laboratory, he studied and tested microfabrication methods for a number of electronics applications, including field-emission amplifiers and magnetic film memories. He also at worked at the university's Lincoln Laboratory, where conducted research on digital computer components and systems. At MIT, he frequently worked with famed electrical engineer and inventor Dudley A. Buck.

In 1958, Shoulders was hired as a Senior Research Engineer by the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in Menlo Park, California, where he continued to be a pioneer in microelectronics. During his tenure at SRI (1958-1968), Shoulders conducted research and development work on a number of micro-sized devices, including field-emission active elements, light generators, and the technology required for their fabrication. He also designed and built the first twelve quadrupole mass spectrometers and designed a rapid access ultra-high-vacuum system. In addition to his work in microelectronics, Shoulders also became interested in aerospace engineering at SRI. Under SRI's auspices, he designed two personal air transport systems: the Gyrodyne Convertiplane and Helicopter Escape and Rescue Outfit (HERO), neither of which were brought to fruition.

Shoulders left Stanford Research Institute in 1968 to form Vertitek, Incorporated, with the intention of building experimental aircraft designed by himself. Vertitek proved to be a short-lived venture, but Shoulders maintained a keen interest in experimental aircraft for the rest of his life. Between the 1970s and late 1990s, he continued to design and build innovative aircraft and aircraft components, including the Boomerang Surveillance System and the Shadow Autonomous Aerial Vehicle.

Shoulders became interested in experimental physics research during the mid and late 1970s. He was mainly interested in charge clusters, which he initially called "Electrum Validum" (EV), then later renamed "Exotic Vacuum Objects" (EVO). Believing EVs/EVOs to be a potential source of untapped energy, Shoulders conducted extensive research on this phenomena between the 1980s and 2010s. During the 1980s and early 1990s, he carried out much of his EV/EVO research as Chief Inventor at Jupiter Technologies, a firm owned by Church's Fried Chicken CEO George W. Church, Jr.

Kenneth R. Shoulders was awarded a number of patents over the course of his career. He was the also the author of the self published book, EV, A Tale of Discovery(1987).

Kenneth R. Shoulders passed away on June 7, 2013.

Series Description

Arranged alphabetically by subject, this series contains Kenneth R. Shoulders' notebooks. Most of the notebooks were created by Shoulders himself and provide limited documentation of his professional, personal, and school activities between 1940 and 1993. This series also contains photocopies of six research notebooks created by famed electrical engineer and inventor Dudley A. Buck, a colleague of Shoulders at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The copies of Buck's notebooks document research he conducted at MIT.

The contents of this series consist mainly of ring notebooks. Eight unbound notebooks (including the photocopies of Dudley A. Buck's notebooks) and four bound notebooks are also found here. A handful of Shoulders' pocket notebooks are preserved in this series as well.

Series Description

Arranged alphabetically by subject, this series contains manuscripts written by Kenneth R. Shoulders. The materials preserved in this series provide written documentation of research he conducted between the late 1950s and late 1980s. Most of items in this series were later printed or published, some examples of which are preserved in Series IV – Patent Files, Series VII – Papers, Presentations, and Speeches, and Series VIII – Printed Materials.

A large majority of the manuscripts in this series were written by Shoulders during his tenure at Stanford Research Institute, which include those of various SRI publications and proposals. A smaller, but noticeable, number of manuscripts written by Shoulders as part of his independent physics research on Electrum Validum are found in this series, which include, but are not limited to those for his book EV, A Tale of Discovery. Two manuscripts of speeches given by Shoulders at professional conferences are also preserved here.

Typed manuscripts make up a majority of the materials in this series. A noticeable number of printed manuscripts and a few handwritten manuscripts are also found here. A small amount of accompanying materials, including notes and drawing reproductions, are preserved in this series as well.

Series Description

Arranged chronologically by subject, this series contains papers, presentations, and speeches collected by Kenneth R. Shoulders over the course of his career. Most the materials in this series were created by Shoulders himself, but a significant amount of material created by others (including colleagues of Shoulders) are also found here.

The materials preserved in the Papers, Presentations, and Speeches series provide documentation of research conducted by Shoulders over the course of his career. These files also provide a limited amount of information regarding research carried out by others in topics of interest to Shoulders. This series also provides written documentation of Shoulders' outreach activities within the engineering and scientific communities.

Copies of papers, presentations, and speeches by Shoulders make up a majority of the materials in this series. Copies of papers and speeches by other researchers also make up a significant portion of the materials in this series. A handful of original typed papers and speeches by Shoulders are found in this series as well.

Series Description

Arranged alphabetically by subject, this series contains printed materials collected by Kenneth R. Shoulders over the course of his career. Shoulders wrote, contributed to, or is mentioned in a majority of materials in this series. Of particular interest are the copies of Shoulders' book EV, A Tale of Discovery, the publications he wrote for Jupiter Technologies, and the various printed materials Shoulders wrote for the Stanford Research Institute.

This series also contains a significant amount of materials that have no connection to Kenneth R. Shoulders, but do pertain to topics that were of interest to him. The topics represented by these materials include, but are not limited to, microelectronics, aviation, and cold fusion.

The contents of this series consist mainly of publications, which include, but are not limited to, reports, government documents, conference programs, conference proceedings, proposals, and printed technical papers. Clippings of articles, photocopies of articles, and article reprints are also in the Printed Materials series. A few magazines and journals, including issues of Journal of Applied Physics, Microminiaturization, and Research for Industry are also preserved in this series.
