About this Item
792 pp. Original stiff wrappers, 4to. Very Good. Contains 35 papers from an important early Bell symposium, 22 of which were apparently unpublished at the time. Other papers reprinted from the Physical Review (2 papers), Bell System Technical Journal (4), Bell Lab Record (1), Proceedings of the IRE (2), and other periodicals. Includes four important papers for which William Schockley was author (2 papers) or co-author. Papers range from 2 to 56 pp. Includes Schockley's important paper on 'The Theory of p-n junctions in semiconductors and p-n junction transistors.' (BSTJ Vol. 28, July, 1949, pp. 435-489). Shockley, Bardeen, and Brattain were awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize for Physics 'for their researches on semiconductors and their discovery of the transistor effect.'
