THE PROPOSED PROJECT AIMS TO DEVELOP A GREATLY-SIMPLIFIED MANUFACTURING PROCESS THAT CAN BE PERFORMED BY MOST COMPOUND SEMICONDUCTOR FOUNDRIES. THUS, COST SAVINGS CAN BE DERIVED FROM INCREASED COMPETITION AND SCALING BY LEVERAGING LOW-COST HIGH VOLUME MANUFACTURERS FOR WIRELESS COMPONENTS AND LED LIGHTING DEVICES.
