Geoffrey Dearnaley was the son of Eric Dearnaley and Dora Minnie Crouch.


Death:
Geoffrey Dearnaley died on 5 May 2009 at age 78 years, 10 months and 13 days

Geoffrey Dearnaley was a physicist, a Fellow of the Royal Society, and did work on ion implantation for the British government at the Atomic Energy Research Establishment at Harwell in Berkshire. Amusingly, he had a colleague and friend with the surname Whitehead (they used to share a car to commute to work), who was likely descended from the same Whitehead family which had several lawsuits with the Dearnaley/Dearnley family back during the middle ages.

Geoffrey Dearnaley. 22 June 1930 — 5 May 2009

Geoffrey Dearnaley was distinguished for seminal contributions to the fields of low-energy nuclear physics, semiconductor detectors for nuclear radiations, and ion channelling at megaelectronvolt energies. Especially significant was his pioneering research on the ion implantation of semiconductor materials, ion implantation of metals, and ion-assisted coatings. He had a special skill in translating complex scientific concepts into industrially exploitable technologies, so his fundamental research contributions were taken up by industry in the automotive sector, electronics, and engineering. His innovations were seminal in the designs of several ion implantation systems, such as the Lintott implanter, that remained a major force in semiconductor implantation after many years. Later, he led the way with his second-generation ‘Blue Tank’ facility. It was his idea to improve the wear and oxidation resistance of metals by ion implantation, leading to successes as varied as improved resistance to high-temperature corrosion of nuclear fuel cladding and to notable reductions in wear of replacement hip joints. Geoffrey Dearnaley was a fundamental physicist who made significant original contributions to many scientific fields, and his understanding of both science and technology successfully showed industry how to exploit them.
