[PAR] [TLE] Shockley diode [SEP] The Shockley diode (named after physicist William Shockley) is a four-layer semiconductor diode, which was one of the first semiconductor devices invented.  It was a "pnpn" diode.  It is equivalent to a thyristor with a disconnected gate. [PAR] [TLE] William Shockley [SEP] William Bradford Shockley Jr. ( ; February 13, 1910 – August 12, 1989) was an American physicist and inventor.  Shockley was the manager of a research group at Bell Labs that included John Bardeen and Walter Brattain.  The three scientists were jointly awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics for "their researches on semiconductors and their discovery of the transistor effect."
