New Method Combines Gallium Nitride and Diamond for Better Thermal Management of Amplifiers
A demonstration of what is considered to be the first-ever gallium nitride (GaN)-on-diamond high electron mobility transistor could significantly reduce thermal resistance and increase RF performance in monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) power amplifiers, DARPA said in a statement. While MMIC power amplifiers equipped with gallium nitride transistors hold the … [Read more...]
