Go figure... Isn’t it incredible that after all the years of having vacuum tubes that someone just happened to dope germanium and silicon junctions to make the transistor? Go figure…

The Physics Today article described how the device functioned & it was what a 'transistor' does. Anyone else remember this ? Was that the first 'transistor' ?
