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…)
