About GaN

Gallium nitride

Gallium nitride(GaN)

Gallium nitride (GaN), a wide band gap semiconductor material, is a new technology that has moved from labs to markets. GaN industrial devices offer an advantage with regards to thermal performance, efficiency, weight and size. GaN is anticipated to be the next generation semiconductor for optoelectronic/power/RF applications and thus different countries are indulged in developing widespread applications of GaN semiconductors.
