Gallium nitride (GaN), a wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductor, has emerged as a very promising material for electronic components due to the tremendous advantages it offers compared to silicon (Si), such as power capability, extreme temperature tolerance, and high frequency operation. This report serves as a body of knowledge (BOK) in reference to the development and current status of GaN technology obtained via literature and industry surveys. It provides a listing of the major manufacturers and their capabilities, as well as government, industry, and academic parties interested in the technology. The document also discusses GaN’s applications in the area of power electronics, in particular those geared for space missions. Finally, issues relevant to the reliability of GaN-based electronic parts are addressed and limitations affecting the full utilization of this technology are identified. This BOK focuses mainly on power applications for GaN, but will also briefly mention radio frequency (RF) applications for completeness.
A better understanding of the linear energy transfer and range of proton recoil ions in gallium nitride (GaN) is provided to facilitate proper evaluation of GaN device radiation tolerance.
A better understanding of the linear energy transfer and the range of proton recoil ions in gallium nitride is necessary to properly evaluate GaN device radiation tolerance. By analyzing the linear energy transfer (LET) and range of recoil heavy ions in GaN we can begin to reproduce the body of knowledge that exists for Si-based devices for this upcoming technology. Although the previous data on older technology has impressive depth and breadth we must be diligent and cautious in the application of these institutional intuitions when applied to emerging technologies such as GaN. As ever increasing materials science advances emerge, a sound methodology for evaluating new technologies must be established in order to apply what we know towards the effort of ensuring radiation tolerance.
Solid gallium is used as a lubricant on bearings made of compatible materials. Such lubricants perform well in a high vacuum and under low temperature.
Proton damage effects in silicon and gallium arsenide solar cells
Gallium arsenide electro-optic modulator used for infrared lasers has a mica quarter-wave plate and two calcite polarizers to amplitude or phase modulate an infrared laser light source in the wavelength range from 1 to 3 microns. The large single crystal has uniformly high resistivities, is strain free, and comparable in quality to good optical glass.
