It's time for change:
100 years since Fleming and de Forest demonstrated the thermionic valve ...
60 years since Bardeen, Brattain, & Schockley demonstrated the bipolar transistor ...
30 years since the IGBT was demonstrated by Baliga ...
Progress has stalled, silicon is beyond its limits, the power industry is crying out for more powerful devices, the world needs more efficient energy.
It's time to change.
A new generation of power semiconductors is coming in 2009.
