Gallium Nitride


We are the UK distributor for Saint-Gobain Crystals Lumilog. Saint-Gobain Crystals is a world leader in the development, growth and finishing of high purity single crystal material. LUMILOG develops and manufactures Bulk GaN (GaN Free Standing) and GaN epiwafers on sapphire substrates with very low dislocations densities. Please visit http://www.photonic.saint-gobain.com/GaN-Substrates.aspx for more information.


High quality GaN substrates are required to fabricate long-lived, efficient and reliable optoelectronic and electronic devices. Nitride semiconductors are currently used in a variety of components such as near UV Laser Diodes for new generation DVDs, high brightness LEDs for general lighting and high power, high frequency transistors for cellular phone base stations and defence applications.
