• Gallium Nitride https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Aluminium gallium nitride 1 Aluminium gallium nitride (AlGaN) is a semiconductor material. It is an alloy of aluminium nitride and gallium nitride. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Aluminium gallium nitride 1 AlGaN is often used together with gallium nitride or aluminium nitride, forming heterojunctions. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Aluminium gallium nitride - Safety and toxicity aspects 1 The toxicology of AlGaN has not been fully investigated. The AlGaN dust is an irritant to skin, eyes and lungs. The environment, health and safety aspects of aluminium gallium nitride sources (such as trimethylgallium and ammonia) and industrial hygiene monitoring studies of standard MOVPE sources have been reported recently in a review. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Gallium nitride 1 Gallium nitride (GaN) is a binary III/V direct bandgap semiconductor commonly used in bright light-emitting diodes since the 1990s. The compound is a very hard material that has a Wurtzite crystal structure. Its wide band gap of 3.4 eV affords it special properties for applications in optoelectronic, high-power and high-frequency devices. For example, GaN is the substrate which makes violet (405 nm) laser diodes possible, without use of nonlinear optical frequency-doubling. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Gallium nitride - Physical properties 1 Gallium nitride compounds also tend to have a high spatial defect frequency, on the order of a hundred million to ten billion defects per square centimeter. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Gallium nitride - Developments The first gallium nitride metal semiconductor field-effect transistors (GaN MESFET) were experimentally demonstrated in 1993 and they are being actively developed. 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Gallium nitride - Developments 1 In 2010 the first enhancement mode gallium nitride transistors became generally available. These devices were designed to replace power MOSFETs in applications where switching speed or power conversion efficiency is critical. These transistors, also called eGaN FETs, are built by growing a thin layer of GaN on top of a standard silicon wafer. This allows the eGaN FETs to maintain costs similar to silicon power MOSFETs, but with the superior electrical performance GaN. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Gallium nitride - Safety 1 GaN dust is an irritant to skin, eyes and lungs.

It is a ternary group III/group V direct bandgap semiconductor. Its bandgap can be tuned by varying the amount of indium in the alloy. The ratio of In/Ga is usually between 0.02/0.98 and 0.3/0.7. 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Indium gallium nitride - LEDs Indium gallium nitride is the lightemitting layer in modern blue and green LEDs and often grown on a GaN buffer on a transparent substrate as, e.g. sapphire or silicon carbide. It has a high heat capacity and its sensitivity to ionizing radiation is low (like other group III nitrides), making it also a potentially suitable material for solar photovoltaic devices, specifically for arrays for satellites. 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-gallium-nitride-toolkit.html Indium gallium nitride - Safety and toxicity 1 The toxicology of InGaN has not been fully investigated.
