Group IV Semiconductor Inc.

Description

Group IV Semiconductor is developing revolutionary silicon-based solid-state light emitters. These devices will be the building blocks of future solid-state lighting products that are more efficient than fluorescent lights, have a much longer life than conventional bulbs, and could be produced at costs low enough to promote rapid, widespread adoption. Group IV Semiconductor is based in Ottawa.
