          Application 08/089,359                                                      

                                DECISION ON APPEAL                                    
               This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from                
          the final rejection of claims 1-5.  Claims 6-10 are                         
          indicated to be allowable.  Claims 20-28 stand withdrawn                    
          pursuant to a restriction requirement.                                      
               We reverse.                                                            
                                    BACKGROUND                                        
               The disclosed invention is directed to an integrated                   
          circuit with two different types of field effect transistors                
          which eliminates the need for epitaxial regrowth.                           
               Claim 1 is reproduced below.                                           
               1.  An integrated circuit for providing low-noise and                  
               high-power microwave operation comprising:                             
                    a material structure comprising:                                  
                         a substrate;                                                 
                         a low-noise channel layer;                                   
                         a low-noise buffer layer;                                    
                         a power channel layer; and                                   
                         a wide bandgap layer;                                        
                    a first active region comprising:                                 
                         a first source contact above said wide bandgap               
               layer;                                                                 

                                        - 2 -
