• It was in 1874 that Karl Ferdinant Braun discovered the semiconductor properties of galena: contact between a metal tip and a crystal of galena can form what we today call a Schottky diode. This made it possible to design the radio receiver: the galena station. This discovery earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics which he shared with Guglielmo Marconi in 1909.
