Electronics are the building blocks of many technologies. Individually, resistors, capacitors, semiconductors and other electronics are just inanimate components, but grouped in the right configuration, they can enable access to a world of information on the Internet, open the covers of e-Books, or tap into alternative energy sources that can help supplant fossil fuel-based power generation.

The ongoing evolution of electronics allows industries to improve and upgrade, and new industries to arise. Once-novel developments such as light-emitting diodes are beginning to supplant incandescent light bulbs, as they use far less energy to generate the same amount of light. As the efficiency of electronics increases with each new generation, electronic products such as photovoltaic cells become increasingly effective as alternative energy sources, computers become faster, and displays become thinner and more flexible.

The Electronics Research Service assesses historical and current market demands for specific categories of electronics, and forecasts the likely progression of the market, in the context of competing technologies and macroeconomic trends. Reports in this service identify leading companies in each field and growth opportunities for new and established players.
