Karl Kurz, together with Heinrich Barkhausen, discovered the Barkhausen-Kurz
oscillations, also known as the Barkhausen-Kurz effect, in 1919. This effect
refers to the phenomenon of magnetic domain wall motion in ferromagnetic
materials, which produces oscillations in the electrical current passing through
the material.
Kurz also contributed to the development of the Kurz tube, an early type of
vacuum tube that was used in early radio receivers and transmitters. The Kurz
tube was notable for its ability to amplify very high frequencies, making it
useful for early experiments in radio and telecommunications.
Overall, Karl Kurz was a key figure in the early development of electronics
and his contributions to the study of electronic vibrations were significant.
