"...``Motorola's announcement that they have successfully made GaAs transistors in a thin layer of GaAs grown on a silicon wafer could go down in history as a major turning point for the semiconductor industry,'' said Steve Cullen, director & principal analyst, Semiconductor Research, Cahners In-Stat Group...."

"...Motorola Labs created the world's first 8`` GaAs on silicon wafer and worked with epitaxial wafer manufacturer IQE to create the world's first 12-inch GaAs on silicon wafers and a variety of other wafer sizes. Motorola then made working power amplifiers from GaAs on silicon wafers and successfully completed numerous wireless calls using those devices in several phones over the past few months. In addition, a light-emitting device was created to demonstrate the optical characteristics...."

"...Changing the Economics of Optical Communications

Until now, the industry has been dependent on costly gallium arsenide and indium phosphide wafers for optical and high performance applications. Because of their brittle nature, no one has previously been able to create commercial GaAs wafers larger than 6 inches or InP wafers larger than 4 inches. Scientists have also been unable to combine light-emitting semiconductors with silicon integrated circuits on a single chip...."

VTSS??
