“Empire of the Air” a great book on the radio wars between brillant men and early technology.

Without the Fleming Valve, the Audion would never have existed. And without the Edison incandescent bulb, the Fleming Valve would never have existed.

Yes, in a SF short story I read as a kid, the author identifies Edison as the inventor of the "monode."

And I forgot about the Fleming Valve, thanks for mentioning it.
