In 1939, William Shockley at AT&T's Bell Labs revived the idea as a way to replace vacuum tubes.Under Shockley's direction, John Bardeen and Walter Brattain demonstrated in 1947 the first semiconductor amplifier: the point-contact transistor, with two metal points in contact with a sliver of germanium. In 1948, Shockley invented the more... | |

| | | | | To me one of the all time most interesting meta-research papers (research about the process of research) was written by William Shockley way back in 1957 (On the statistics of individual variations of productivity in research laboratories). Shockley won the Nobel prize for the invention of the transistor and later more or less singlehandedly launched | |
