GEC‐Marconi Materials Technology (GMMT) is actively engaged in a broad‐based program of research in semiconducting materials. George Gibbons, the technical director of the GMMT Caswell laboratory, introduces some of this work, which is then described in more detail in several other articles in this issue by members of the laboratory. Interest is focused on how materials technology drives the progress made in solid‐state devices and circuits, with the next big advance being expected in the development of optoelectronic integrated circuits.
