在过去十年中,半导体材料和器件工艺水平的迅速提高,给系统设计师们提供了经过极大改进了的新的微波、毫米波和光学器件;这些进展主要是由于半导体材料和器件加工工艺的大大改进。这一快速进展正在继续促进着全新的半导体材料（例如超结晶格子）以及新的器件和电路（例如砷化镓单片微波,毫米波和光学集成电路）的研究。 本文将集中在几个研究领域,预计这些研究领域在一九八五年～一九九五年间对系统设计将会产生重要的影响。 The rapid increase in the level of semiconductor materials and device technology over the past decade has provided system designers with greatly improved new microwaves, millimeter waves and optics; these advances have been largely driven by semiconductor materials and device fabrication processes Greatly improved. This rapid advance is continuing to promote the development of new semiconductor materials such as super-lattice lattices and new devices and circuits such as GaAs monolithic microwaves, millimeter waves, and optical integrated circuits. This article will focus on several research areas and it is expected that these research areas will have a significant impact on system design between 1985 and 1995.
