  • Abstract
    This paper discusses GaAs technology with regard to substrate materials, semiconductor devices, and the thriving wireless handset market that is carrying the GaAs industry toward record-breaking revenue and unit volume. A vertical view of the GaAs market for wireless applications is presented to provide a complete picture of the GaAs food chain. This paper does not focus on digital GaAs ICs and their applications but briefly mentions them.
