By Howard W. Blaheslee
, Associated Press Science Editor ,
'; NEW YORK, June 80 fOP)- A
new kind. of radio set. whose
music begins instantly when the
set it turned on, was shown today
.at the BeU Telephone laboratories.
t -This set has no vacuums, tubes.
Nothing lights, nothing even
glows, and nothing gets warm.
The. set always goes instantly be
cause' the usual warming up of
tubes does not exist. . -)' ' ":.
:l The invention that - replaces
tubes is a tiny metal cylinder.
Although this cylinder acts Ue
a radio tube, there is no Vacuum,
- rio grid, no plated no glass .to
keep the air away. I
The entire innards of ihe new
" tube are merely two hair-thin
wires that run down to the base
of an empty tube, to stand on a
,btt of metal not much larger than
the head of a pin.
:: This piece of metal is the sec
ret. The metal amplifies the'eur-pe-qt
that one wire carries to it,
'end the other wire carries away
the amplified current.,
jj The power used today was less
than that of an ordinary - flash
light battery. The new tube is
called a transitor. It -is ' not on
the market. . ' 3
'' . The inventors are Drs. John
Bafdeen; and Walter f. Brattain,
working1 under ' direction of Dr.
William ! Shockley.
