LED MR16 Lamp Made by GaN on GaN Technology

Soraa, the world’s leading developer of GaN on GaN ( gallium nitride on gallium nitride ) – solid state lighting technology, announced the launch of its flagship product, the Soraa LED MR16 lamp. The new product is the first LED lamp to provide superior performance to a traditional halogen MR16. It [...]

What is GaN?

GaN(Gallium nitride), which is a compound semiconductor,it is a hard, high melting point materials, the melting point of about 1700 ° C, GaN is a high degree of ionizationof III-Vcompound (0.5 or 0.43). At atmospheric pressure, the GaN crystal is generally hexagonal wurtzite structure. In a cell four atoms, the atomic volume is about halfthat of the GaAs. GaN is Non-Toxic. Basic Parameters for Wurtzite crystal structure at 300K: Breakdown field ~5 x 106 V cm-1 Mobility electrons =< 1000 cm2 V-1 s-1 Mobility holes =< 200 cm2 V-1 s-1 Diffusion coefficient electrons 25 cm2 s-1 Diffusion coefficient holes 5 cm2 s-1 Diffusion [...]

What is GaAs?

What is GaAs?   GaAs(Gallium arsenide) is a compound semiconductor material,a mixture of two elements, gallium (Ga) and arsenic (As). The uses of Gallium arsenide are varied and include being used in LED/LD, field-effect transistors (FETs), and integrated circuits (ICs).   GaAs Basic Parameters at 300K Crystal structure Zinc Blende Group of symmetry Td2-F43m Number of atoms in 1 [...]

20 years and counting for the GaN LED

A commercially viable GaN LED was an incredibly hard nut to crack that required the development of a buffer layer and a novel approach to p-type doping. But 20 years ago it all came together. Richard Stevenson looks back at the device’s birth. (more…)
