Gallium nitride is a third-generation wide bandgap semiconductor material with the chemical formula GaN. It exists as gray-black crystalline particles under normal conditions, featuring a wide direct bandgap of approximately 3.4 eV, exceptionally high thermal conductivity, electron saturation drift velocity, and breakdown electric field. As a core foundational material for manufacturing high-efficiency optoelectronic devices, high-frequency/high-power RF components, and next-generation power electronic systems, it is hailed as the “cornerstone” material underpinning future information communications, energy conversion, and smart lighting.

Q1: What are the main differences between GaN and SiC particles?
A1: GaN offers higher electron mobility, making it more suitable for high-frequency applications (e.g., 5G RF); SiC provides superior thermal conductivity, making it more suitable for ultra-high-voltage power applications (e.g., electric vehicle main drives).
Q2: What purity level is required for GaN particles?
A2: Depends on the application. High-end epitaxial growth typically requires 5N (99.999%) purity or higher; certain sintering or additive uses may accept 4N (99.99%) grade.
Q3: How should the product be stored?
A3: Store in a sealed container at room temperature in a dry environment. Avoid contact with corrosive chemicals like acids or alkalis to prevent oxidation and contamination.
Q4: Why is GaN material relatively expensive?
A4: The core reasons include the high difficulty, significant technical barriers, and substantial energy consumption involved in producing high-quality single crystals. Additionally, the current industrial scale remains relatively small compared to traditional materials like silicon.
