The Development of the
Transistor
by Western Electric & Bell Labs
This is a .pdf of a rather thick book that Bell Labs had
printed to be given to attendees of their September of 1951 transistor
symposium. This book had a collection of all of the Bell papers that had
been written on the subject of transistor engineering up to that point. I have also
included a couple of other transistor publications that Western Electric
and Bell Labs have subsequently released. The files in this
collection are .pdf's that were made from hi-res scans of original
documents. These are not scans from the web. All scans were done in
hi-res, then cleaned, straightened and non original marks removed were
practical. Most folks associate Bell Labs with the invention of the
transistor. Ironically, that isn't the case as J. E. Lilienfeld
filed for a patent (#1,745,175) for what was essentially an FET in 1925.
He was granted the patent in 1930, about 20 years ahead of the WE pack!
