Gallium nitride (GaN) is a wide-bandgap semiconductor compound that forms the foundation of high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices. It is widely deployed in power electronics (switching supplies, inverters, RF amplifiers), high-brightness light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and next-generation wireless infrastructure due to its ability to operate at high voltages, frequencies, and temperatures with superior efficiency compared to silicon-based alternatives.
