How Does A Transistor Work? No, How Do They Really Work?

This website provides an explanation of how a transistor works and a brief history of transistors. The site includes Part, Part 2, and addtional links. "This article delves into bipolar transistor internal operation: it's the physicist's viewpoint; not the engineer's or technician's." The goal of the site is to ""open the hood" and see what's really going on inside."
