This popularization was further enhanced by the importance of transistors, which were invented in 1947 by Drs. Bardeen, Brattain, and Shockley. s they were producing or hiring. s in the United States increased dramatically during the next few decades when Sharp was making his own educational plans. One result of these changes was the outbreak of a new disease in scientific laboratories throughout the country.

The vice president exuded confidence and noted that success would be achieved sooner if more people with critical skills were added to the project.
