Walter Brattain:
December 4, 1947:
Brattain's attempts to build an amplifier were getting closer and closer to a working model. He had built devices which had amplification, but not enough. They also didn't have a fast enough response time­they would never have been able to amplify a signal as complex as a voice coming over a telephone line. These lab pages show a list of all the new configurations Brattain was going to try as he attempted to solve these problems.
