The high thermal stability of nitride semiconductors allows for the on-wafer integration of (001)Si CMOS electronics and electronic devices based on these semiconductors. This paper describes the technology developed at MIT to seamlessly integrate GaN and Si transistors in very close proximity (<5 mum). This integration, the first of any III-V field effect transistor with (001) Si electronics, enables tremendous new possibilities to circuit and system designers. For example, we will study the use of hybrid GaN-Si circuits to improve the power distribution networks in Si microprocessors.
