The transistor was probably the most important invention of the 20th Century, and the story behind the invention is one of clashing egos and top secret research. First - BJTs Reference: Bell Labs Museum B. G. Streetman & S. Banerjee ‘Solid State Electronic Devices’, Prentice Hall 1999.
Point-Contact Transistor – first transistor ever made
First Bipolar Junction Transistors W. Shockley invented the p-n junction transistor The physically relevant region is moved to the bulk of the material
