Mission
We strive to deliver material based solutions to improve the quality of life for everyone. We do this by developing platform materials enabling groundbreaking technology to solve some of the world's toughest challenges towards a more sustainable future.
Accelerate the world’s transition to breakthrough GaN
Reaching climate neutrality, circularity, healthy food-systems and sustainability in agriculture, transportation, packaging, electronic appliances, as well as completing the transition to renewable energy sources are among the greatest challenges humanity is facing today.
This is exactly where advanced materials such as GaN plays a leading role in the third generation of semiconductor materials. In speed, temperature, and power handling, GaN is the technology that will allow the implementation of essential future “cleantech” innovations, where power, weight, and volumetric efficiency are key requirements.
GaN devices offer five key characteristics: high dielectric strength, high operating temperature, high current density, high speed switching and low on-resistance. These characteristics are due to the properties of GaN, which, compared to silicon, offers ten times higher electrical breakdown characteristics, three times the bandgap, and exceptional carrier mobility.
Silicon technology displaced almost all the earlier low power thermionic and electromechanical devices, but fundamental material limitations have stalled its use in higher power applications. All power electronic systems of the future will take full advantage of wide bandgap devices such as GaN.
