The Mayo Clinic website might seem an unlikely place to find compound activity, but at the Special Purpose Processor Development Group [http://www.mayo.edu/sppdg/emerg-ing_device_ic_technologies.html] information on work which started with several foundries to develop GaAs MESFETs, in a half dozen varieties, can be found. During the early 1990s, the group worked with several foundries to develop GaAs HBTs and ICs.While drawing more power and supporting much lower levels of integration than the GaAs MESFETs, the digital GaAs HBT ICs were able to operate at 10-15GHz.
