Gallium Nitride HEMT Epiwafer

Gallium nitride (GaN) is used as the wide band gap material for next generation power semiconductors and high frequency devices. We achieved high voltage resistance and good flatness on the Gallium Nitride HEMT Epiwafers using our proprietary buffer layers. (GaN on Si HEMT Epiwafers)

We are also engaged in the development of p-GaN cap layers and AlGaN DH structure for the realization of normally-off HEMT Epiwafers.


We also handle GaN Epiwafers on silicon carbide (SiC) and sapphire and AIN templates for high-quality LED (on sapphire wafer). 
 

Applications (GaN on Si HEMT Epiwafer)
For power semiconductors: Inverter and AC-DC converter
For high-frequency devices: For mobile phone base stations
