The transistor, a brilliant invention! Hi dear friend Prem_Verma ! I agree with your comment. I would like to add this : he transistor is a discovery which revolutionized our world. Without transistor, not of TV, not of video, not of voyage beyond the atmosphere to go to the space conquest and not of Internet. The transistor is a chip having three electrodes: an entry, an exit and a source providing energy. Three American engineers of the laboratories Bell - John Bardeen, Walter Brattain and William Schockley - discovered the transistor in 1947 and received the Nobel Prize of physics for their invention in 1956. But the history of the transitor started quite front. At the 19th century with the discovery of the fairy “electricity” by scientists like Maxwell, Hertz, Faraday and Edison

John Bardeen was the thinker, a man who could look at an event no one else comprehended and go beyond common understanding to explain it. Walter Brattain was the tinkerer, a builder who could put together any contraption asked. William Shockley was the visionary, a seer who predicted how important the transistor would be long before anyone else
