    This paper reviews the potential possibility and present status of trans-polyacetylene research toward realization of soliton molecular devices utilizing characteristics of the quasi-one-dimensional conductor. Properties of solitons in polyacetylene are summarized from a point of view to produce a new microelectronics beyond Si-LSI's. The limiting performance of soliton LSI's are roughly estimated. One bit information is stored in only 420 2. The information transmission rate of a wiring is 2104 Gb/s. The delay time per gate is 0.05 ps. For realization of this high performance devices, a lot of research must be carried out in future. A new circuit with new principles of operations must be developed to achieve the performance, where a localized soliton or a localized group of solitons are treated. Some systems, which may lead to development of logic circuits, are proposed. The problems in crystal quality and fabrication process are also discussed and some means against them are presented.
