GLOBAL GaN EPITAXIAL WAFERS MARKET

INTRODUCTION

The pursuit of greater efficacy, quicker performance, and smaller form factors has fuelled continual progress in the field of semiconductor technology.

The creation and use of gallium nitride (GaN) epitaxial wafers is one outstanding development that has occurred.

These wafers have the potential to revolutionise a number of industries, including power management and electronics, because of their extraordinary qualities and capabilities.

Wide-bandgap semiconductor GaN has exceptional electrical and thermal characteristics that make it highly sought-after for a variety of applications.

By creating GaN epitaxial wafers, epitaxy—the process of developing a crystalline layer on a substrate—has allowed scientists and engineers to fully realise the potential of GaN.

Thin slices of semiconductor material called GaN epitaxial wafers are created by precisely controlling the growth of layers of GaN on a substrate.

Depending on the intended application and desired performance characteristics, this substrate may be composed of several materials, including silicon carbide (SiC) or sapphire.

GaN epitaxial wafers have a number of advantages over conventional silicon-based technologies, including the following:

• GaN operates at greater temperatures and voltages while maintaining strong electron mobility because it has a wider band gap than silicon.
• For high-power and high-frequency applications, this feature is very helpful.
• High Electron Mobility: GaN's high electron mobility enables power electrical devices to switch on and off more quickly and perform better overall.
• GaN-based devices are so appropriate for RF, inverter, and power conversion applications.
• Efficiency and Miniaturisation: GaN epitaxial wafers make it possible to make devices that are both more efficient and more compact.
• For example, GaN-based power transistors can lower energy losses in a variety of electronic devices, resulting in energy savings and improved performance.
• Emerging Technologies: Due to their high-frequency capabilities and power efficiency, GaN epitaxial wafers have found use in 5G infrastructure, radar systems, satellite communications, and sophisticated lighting solutions.
• GaN technology has the ability to completely transform both renewable energy sources and automotive electronics.
• Electric vehicles can operate more efficiently because of GaN-based power electronics, which can also make solar inverters smaller and more effective.
• GaN epitaxial wafers' high-frequency characteristics are especially critical for defence applications, communication systems, and medical imaging devices where accurate signal processing and transmission are necessary.

GaN epitaxial wafers are a ground-breaking development in semiconductor technology.

Wide bandgap, high electron mobility, and energy efficiency are just a few of the unique qualities that they possess, and these attributes open up new opportunities for electronic, power management, and communication systems.

Even if there are still difficulties, current research and development efforts are positioned to fully realise GaN's potential, opening the door for a future that is more energy-efficient, high-performing, and linked.
