摘要

Neil Bartlett, who died on 5 August at the age of 75 from an aortic aneurysm, was one of the foremost chemists of the twentieth century. His discovery in the early 1960s of xenon fluorides, the first examples of a noble-gas compound, was a sensation. With one stroke of genius, he destroyed the longstanding dogma that the 'noble gases' (also previously known as the inert or rare gases) are unreactive. Bartlett was born in 1932, in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, and studied for both his undergraduate and postgraduate degrees at the University of Durham. Following a brief spell as a chemistry teacher, in 1958 he emigrated to Canada and took up a position as a lecturer at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver. In 1964, he became a full professor at UBC, but in 1966 moved to a professorship at Princeton University and also joined the research staff at Bell Telephone Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey. In 1969, he accepted a professorship at the University of California, Berkeley, and became a faculty senior scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, positions he held until his retirements in 1993 and 1999, respectively.
