Happy Birthday
The transistor, the ubiquitous building block of all electronic circuits, was 60 years old yesterday. The device is jointly credited to William Shockley (1910-1989), John Bardeen (1908-1991) and Walter Brattain (1902-1987), and it was Bardeen and Brattain who made the first working point-contact transistor on 16 December 1947.
