In that year John Bardeen, William Shockley, and Walter Brattain of Bell Laboratories drew upon highly sophisticated principles of quantum physics to invent the transistor, a small substitute for the bulky vacuum tube.

The first transistor, built by William Shockley, John Bardeen and Walter H . Brattain in 1947, worked like a vacuum tube to amplify small electric currents in a way that was remarkably simple.

This effect remained a mystery because nobody realised, until 1948, that Bray had observed minority carrier injection-the effect that was identified by William Shockley at Bell Labs and made the transistor a reality.
