If transistors could ... certainly could replace them in computers too. The army, with its need for ever-faster and more efficient calculations, was the first to jump on the bandwagon.

When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June ... the modern transistor used in computer chips—is similar in operation to the one that Shockley first proposed. It consists of a semiconductor ...

Sony launched the world's first non-projection, fully transistorized television, the TV8-301, in May 1960, about six years ...

Microsoft today introduced Majorana 1, the world’s first quantum chip powered by a new Topological Core architecture that it expects will realize quantum computers capable of solving meaningful, ...

Even the first electronic computer relied on vacuum tubes—about 18,000 of them ... Bardeen and Brattain produced the world’s first semiconductor amplifier—the point-contact transistor was born.

Semiconductor devices called transistors are the tiny electronic switches that run computations inside our computers. Scientists in the US built the first silicon transistor in 1947. Before that ...
