Abstract
Summary form only given. The past 50 years has included remarkable developments and commercial enterprises in microwave technology. The companies and institutions of the San Francisco Bay Area (and the so-called ´Silicon Valley´) have earned an international reputation for technical innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. The speakers will review four of the major areas of development and commercialization in the Bay Area, including microwave semiconductors, metrology, telecommunications and defense electronics. In addition, the session takes a look forward to what might be in store for the greater Bay Area. We also recognize 50 years of service by our Santa Clara Valley MTT-S Chapter.
