Armed with a Ph.D. in physics from MIT, Bob Noyce started his career doing transistor research at Philco in Philadelphia in 1953. Three years later, he accepted an offer from William Shockley, one of the inventors of the transistor, to move to California to work at start-up Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory. Noyce left Shockley Semiconductor in 1957 and founded Fairchild Semiconductor with eight others, where he would invent the Integrated Circuit based on the planar process, which is the core technology all ICs are based on.
