Abstract
J.J. Thomson won the 1906 Physics Nobel Prize for his work on gaseous conductivity and the discovery of the electron that led to modern atomic physics. At the same time the electronics industry started with its consequent patent activity. On the 100th anniversary of Thomson’s Nobel Prize, the history of the electron/electronics, and the relationship between them, is explored.
