ALL but one of the papers that comprise this issue discuss practical aplications of semiconductors and touch upon their properties as employed in rectifying devices, detectors, and in a new amplifying unit — the so-called transistor. These semiconductor papers all relate to one another and present, as a whole, a current but well developed account of the behavior and uses of these very promising additions to today's vast array of electrical applicances.
