Was William Shockley actually one of the threesome who invented the point contact transistor?

In the article, it says, "The first working device was a point-contact transistor invented in 1947 by physicists John Bardeen, Walter Brattain, and William Shockley". However, I found a different article on the website Electronic Design, authored by Lou Frenzel, that gives contradictory information.

Not sure what the correct action would be, though. Attihoch (talk) 17:18, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Collector should be at top of PNP symbol

The PNP symbol under "Electronic symbol" should be flipped vertically, to put the collector at the top. That's the way it's usually shown in schematics. BMJ-pdx (talk) 13:23, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see it both ways. Constant314 (talk) 19:23, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
