Gallium Nitride Ecosystem Enabling Centre And Incubator : Bengaluru

Gallium Nitride Ecosystem Enabling Centre and Incubator (GEECI) has been set up in Bengaluru.

  • The facility has been jointly set up by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology and IISc Bengaluru.
  • It is aimed at establishing GaN based Development Line Foundry facility, especially for RF and power applications, including strategic applications.
  • Gallium Nitride (GaN) is believed to be the second most important material after silicon for electronics chips.
  • Properties of Gallium Nitride: High heat capacity, Sensitivity to ionizing radiation is low, faster-switching speed, higher thermal conductivity and lower on-resistance.
  • GaN is a semiconductor commonly used in blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
  • Gallium Nitride Technology is of strategic importance with its application in the field of 5G, space and defense.
  • Gallium Nitride (GaN) plays a key role in enabling e-vehicles and wireless communication.
