has america done anything significant in the evolution of electronics within the last three decades?

think about this; at one time, america was the world leader in electronics development. Bell Labs introduced the world’s first transistor back in 1948, and then Texas Instruments invented the integrated circuit chip, which enables us to have things like computers today. but since then, what have we done in this field that has been significant? have we handed all of our creativity over to the japanese and chinese? maybe i haven’t been keeping abreast of modern developments….if so, can you enlighten me?
