In fact, the antecessor of transistor was the diode. Transistor is an abbreviation for "Transfer resistor, A transistor is formed by the combination of two diodes,

and the first diodes were made of germanium to allow current flows on one direction and blocking it on the reverse direction. Transistor was the basis for the real development of electronic technologies, but the main material inside of it, that started with germanium, today is used silicon, and graphene is the newest material that promises to replace silicon with many important physical features.
