II-VI & III-V Substrates

III-V Semiconductors

In the 1960's, a second generation of electronic material was developed - the III-V compound semiconductors, composed of elements from groups III and V of the periodic table. These compounds form the basis for manufacturing of all optoelectronic components and high performance microwave and digital system markets.

Gallium Arsenide (GaAs)
Gallium Phosphide (GaP)
Gallium Antimonide (GaSb)
Indium Arsenide (InAs)
Indium Phosphide (InP)
Indium Antimonide (InSb)


II-VI Semiconductors

A third generation of electronic materials is wide bandgap semiconductors (WBS). Due to their outstanding physical properties, devices made from these materials have potential operating characteristics far superior to those made from Si, GaAs or InP in high power, high temperature, high frequency and short wavelength applications.

Silicon Carbide (SiC)
Cubic Boron Nitride (C-BN)
Gallium Nitride (GaN)
Aluminium Nitride (AlN)
Zinc Selenide (ZnSe)
