[[Paul K. Weimer|Paul Weimer]], also at [[RCA]], invented in 1962 [[thin-film transistor]] (TFT) complementary circuits, a close relative of CMOS. He invented complementary [[flip-flop (electronics)|flip-flop]] and inverter circuits, but did no work in a more complex complementary logic. He was the first person able to put p-channel and n-channel TFTs in a circuit on the same substrate. Three years earlier, [[J. Torkel Wallmark|John T. Wallmark]] and Sanford M. Marcus published a variety of complex logic functions implemented as integrated circuits using [[JFET]]s, including complementary memory circuits. Frank Wanlass was familiar with work done by Weimer at RCA.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=George Clifford |first1=Sziklai |title=Symmetrical Properties of Transistors and Their Applications |date=1953 | volume=41 | issue=6 | pages=717β724 |journal=Proceedings of the IRE |doi=10.1109/JRPROC.1953.274250|s2cid=51639018 }}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last1=Lojek |first1=Bo |title=History of Semiconductor Engineering |date=2007 |publisher=Springer |isbn=978-3540342588 |page=162}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |first=Richard |last=Ahrons | title=Industrial Research in Microcircuitry at RCA: The Early Years, 1953β1963 | year=2012 | volume=12 | issue=1 | pages=60β73 |journal= IEEE Annals of the History of Computing |doi=10.1109/MAHC.2011.62|s2cid=18912623 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Oral History of Thomas (Tom) Stanley | url=https://archive.computerhistory.org/resources/access/text/2015/06/102702047-05-01-acc.pdf}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | title=IRE News and Radio Notes |journal = Proceedings of the IRE|year = 1954|volume = 42|issue = 6|pages = 1027β1043|doi = 10.1109/JRPROC.1954.274784| url=https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/4051740}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|first1=J.T. |last1=Wallmark |first2=S.M. |last2=Marcus|chapter=Integrated devices using Direct-Coupled Unipolar Transistor Logic|year=1959 |title=1959 IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference.
