How cool a micro 300B on a chip The thermal load would force it to be immersed in liquid nitrogen. I see no reason why micro tubes on a chip could not be made. There are a number of tubes that are quite small now, so with technological advances since the "peanut" tube's heyday I can envision one an order of magnitude smaller. Be great for very high frequency and switching applications. For audio maybe, maybe not so great. Still a very interesting topic.
