Figure 3: Chemistry Nobel Prizes 1901-2009: Evolution of cumulative national shares by citizenship at the time of the award. The vertical width of a nation's colored band at each year measures its percentage of all Chemistry Prizes up to that year (image height = 100%). The Netherlands took the lead in 1901, Germany caught up in 1902, Sweden in 1903, the UK in 1904; then Germany alone led until 1984 (not as long as in the birth-based ranking); then the US took over.
