Introduction: Silicon in All Its Forms

  • Chapter
Silicon

Abstract

I am truly and deeply honored to be selected to give this talk. One of the highlights of my early career was to take a trek up to Harvard and visit with Professor David Turnbull. Although I only spent a small amount of time with him, it made a considerable impact on me.
