Description
Gallium Arsenide GaAs is a direct band gap compound semiconductor of group III-V synthesized by at least 6N 7N high purity gallium and arsenic element, and grown crystal by VGF or LEC process from high purity polycrystalline gallium arsenide, grey color appearance, cubic crystals with zinc-blende structure. With the doping of carbon, silicon, tellurium or zinc to get n-type or p-type and semi-insulating conductivity respectively, a cylindrical InAs crystal can be sliced and fabricated into blank and wafer in as-cut, etched, polished or epi-ready for MBE or MOCVD epitaxial growth. Gallium Arsenide wafer is principally used to fabricate electronic devices such as infrared light-emitting diodes, laser diodes, optical windows, field-effect transistors FETs, linear of digital ICs and solar cells. GaAs components are useful in ultra-high radio frequencies and fast electronic switching application, weak-signal amplification applications. Furthermore, Gallium Arsenide substrate is a ideal material for the manufacture of RF components, microwave frequency and monolithic ICs, and LEDs devices in optical communications and control systems for its saturating hall mobility, high power and temperature stability.
