Hi Bob I have a few educated guesses. Back in the mid eighties. On my way into work . This when I worked at Burroughs corp. I passed Harris corp every day. I remember them being into some Gallium Arsenide chips. They later spun off their semi business as Intersil. I was very interested about GA long ago and ask my brother about Gallium Arsenide way way back.

A little company in Rochester called Kaytex made crystal growing furnaces for Semis. Another Rochester company acquired it. I believe it was, General Railway Signal? As you know Silicon Carbide is the building blocks of LEDS. Two other companies with a little GA research to jog my mind. Vitesse and RF Micro Devices? I've owned Harris on and off and no longer own it. One other point to remember. MFG's of Chips used in critical defense programs can't be sold to certain foreign countries for reasons of national security.

Hope this helps
