LEDs which emit UVC wavelengths from 260 nm to 270 nm are increasingly becoming the technology of choice in on-demand and low flow disinfection applications. But for engineers used to designing lamp-based systems, it can be daunting to understand how to correlate LED specs to legacy lamp ratings.  Understanding how to translate data sheet values...Read More

Aluminum Nitride (AlN) is an ultra wide bandgap semiconductor that provides foundational benefits in devices for optoelectronics, RF and power. As the electronics industry evolves, there’s a growing demand for devices that: Operate at higher temperatures Support higher power Offer improved reliability and efficiency AlN meet these requirements better than traditional semiconductors. In the case...Read More

Crystal IS has produced its one hundredth 100 mm bulk Aluminum Nitride (AlN) wafer from its new 100 mm pilot-production line. With an initial capacity of 1,250 substrates a year, this pilot line achievement demonstrates the yield, uniformity, and repeatability at scale of Crystal IS’ bulk AlN platform for next-generation high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices....Read More
