Military & Aerospace Electronics April 2007 Gurnett & Adams	Merging the Functionalities of Silicon, and III-Vs: Two Promising Approaches One of the least flexible rules in electronic design is the need to keep silicon devices, and compound semiconductor devices separate. Two new developments are now threatening to make this rule partly or entirely obsolete.
Military & Aerospace Electronics March 2005 Tom Adams	The shrinking-package approach to low-cost, robust sensor arrays One potential benefit of shrinking the sizes of microelectronics components is the potential to scatter a large number of sensors arranged as a distributed array over an area for surveillance.
IEEE Spectrum February 2005 Singh & Thakur	Chip Making's Singular Future Beleaguered chip makers are counting on single-wafer manufacturing, which makes ICs on one wafer at a time, to cut costs and get chips to market faster.
Chemistry World October 9, 2011 Phillip Broadwith	Growing gallium nitride LEDs on glass Korean researchers have grown crystalline gallium nitride on the surface of amorphous glass. The idea could lead to new, scalable ways of making semiconductor devices that don't need to be grown on silicon or sapphire wafers.
IEEE Spectrum March 2013 Joachim N. Burghartz	Make Way for Flexible Silicon Chips We need them because thin, pliable organic semiconductors are too slow to serve in tomorrow's chips. Seamless integration of computing into everyday objects isn't quite here yet.
IEEE Spectrum August 2008 Neil Savage	Cheaper LEDs Possible by Growing Gallium Nitride on Silicon Engineers take a step toward cheaper solid-state lighting.
