AbstractThe following article is an edited transcript of a talk presented in Symposium X—Frontiers of Materials Research at the 2002 Materials Research Society Fall Meeting in Boston on December 2, 2002. From Bessemer steel used on the first motorized bicycle in 1871 to sintered aluminum ceramic composites and TiN thin-film coatings used on standard production machines today, motorcycles have been at the forefront of the use of high-performance materials. Thanks to developments in materials technology, relatively inexpensive mass-produced motorcycles are now capable of achieving speeds of >190 mph.

Medal Award

The following article, originally published in Materials Research Society Proceedings Volume 482, is based on the address that Shuji Nakamura, recipient of an MRS Medal Award, presented during Symposium X of the 1997 MRS Fall Meeting. Nakamura was recognized for “the development of lattice-mismatched GaN based heteroepitaxy and its application to the creation of blue and green light-emitting diodes and short wave-length laser diodes.”
