What do you think will come after silicon in semiconductors?

70%: nothing, well just stick with Si forever
15%: some sort of Si binary like SiC
10%: some sort of III-V ternary or quaternary
5%: something as of yet undiscovered

GOO-TRONICS will follow. This is the age of nanomachines. Why continue using expensive and inefficient wires?

Imagine a microchip as a scaled to human hair width grain of rice or a smaller than a salt crystal grown on a dissolvable substrate. The microchip would have cilia and flagellum and other motivation mechanical swimming arms. Each chip would have a light emissive ring with mechanical polarizing filters and even a reflective ring. After the substrate is dissolved, the goo in which these electronics swim would get a mild electrical wavefront charge (think of water pouring over pebbles) which would have IP ENCODED signals to determine if the swimming components are properly active and functional. The light emitting units would swim upwards and be skimmed off. The units that cannot light up would be considered defective as display smartdots, and if they pass comprehensive tests, be tolerated as COMPUTATIONAL units, the units that cannot swim or light up will be used as low quality computational units. Sweeper units would filter the entirely defective units for reprocessing or remelt and collect the nonswimmer units for cheaper electronics.

The swimmer units that light up would acquire energy and data and emit data along the electrical wavefront coded pulses. To display images as a touchscreen does, they would create an informal mesh network by distance and ID themselves as IP ADDRESSES. In this way, every pixel would a compute unit and the electrolyte gel would minimize energy loss for the swimming smartdots compute-display units. The non-emmissive swimmers would be used as contrast units (dark or mirrored pixels) as low power usage bulk compute units. They would also be tasked with locking onto dead units and dragging them to reservoir zones offscreen. If your screen dies, you can empty it out and refill with more GOO-PUTER smartdots. A desktop PC would have an aquarium of sorts filled with smartdots and electrolyte goo. Massively parallel bulk computation.

GOO-TRONICS also could be sprayed onto any surface with an electrolyte bonding layer so you could spraypaint a pumpkin with cheap smartdots and have it operate like a touchscreen display with 1000x higher resolution so long as you ran a wavefront power pulse through the polymer substrate. Unfortunately, the smartdots would be embedded in a rigid polymer layer, so as the pumpkin rots, they would basically be unrecoverable.

Larger units would be used as battery reserves, dedicated types of processing zones, and other functions like Wifi emitters or laser emitters.

But you say, the wavefront would be slow. That's where the flagellum (sperm tails) come in on the swimming smartdots. These could act as flexible virtual wires (faster conductive regions) to allow a much higher bandwidth between zones in smartdot goo communication. Since they are flexible and bend, they can be flexed with the smartdot goo and not break when crushed or folded. For faster communication, micro laser emitters could use infrared beams to speed prompt smartdot mesh zones the respond faster from the edges of the display surfaces.
