INTEGRATED ELECTRONICS ON THE ALUMINUM NITRIDE PLATFORM
Gallium nitride high-electron-mobility transistors (GaN HEMTs) are at a point of rapid growth in defense (radar, SATCOM) and commercial (5G and beyond) industries. This growth also comes at a point at which the standard GaN heterostructures remain unoptimized for maximum performance. For this reason, the shift to the aluminum nitride (AlN) platform is disclosed. AlN allows for smarter, highly-scaled heterostructure design that improves the output power and thermal management of GaN amplifiers. Beyond improvements over the incumbent amplifier technology, AlN allows for a level of integration previously unachievable with GaN electronics. State-of-the-art high-current p-channel FETs, mature filter technology, and advanced waveguides, all monolithically integrated with an AlN/GaN/AlN HEMT, is made possible with aluminum nitride. It is on this AlN platform that nitride electronics may maximize their full high-power, highspeed potential for mm-wave communication and high-power logic applications.
