Junction transistor might refer to:
- Grown-junction transistorGrown-junction transistorThe grown-junction transistor was the first type of bipolar junction transistor made. It was invented by William Shockley at Bell Labs on June 23, 1948. The patent was filed on June 26, 1948. The first germanium prototypes were made in 1949...
- Alloy-junction transistorAlloy-junction transistorThe germanium alloy-junction transistor, or alloy transistor, was an early type of bipolar junction transistor, developed at General Electric and RCA in 1951 as an improvement over the earlier grown-junction transistor....
- Bipolar junction transistorBipolar junction transistor|- align = "center"| || PNP|- align = "center"| || NPNA bipolar transistor is a three-terminal electronic device constructed of doped semiconductor material and may be used in amplifying or switching applications. Bipolar transistors are so named because their operation involves both electrons...
