The potential market size of these massive applications of GaN is currently in the billions of dollars.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAs a result of this successful demo, a new lab has been contracted for this new system, valued at more than $2 million. The lab construction and the equipment is funded by industry, FEDER (European funds), the Region of Lorraine, the French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), and GTL.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe state-of-the-art, 3x2-inch or 1x4-inch wafer configuration Close Coupled Showerhead (CCS) system features high temperature growth capabilities of up to 1300\u00b0C and EPITT and EPICURVE, two sophisticated in situ-monitoring systems that enable better process and control to explore \u201chigher temperature\u201d growth regimes that suit advanced and innovative materials development.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe versatile CCS concept is recognized as a robust route to uniformity and scalability to mass production, which is attractive for industry-oriented research, according to Abdallah Ougazzaden, a professor in the Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) and GTL director.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u201cThe CCS system perfectly matches our R\u0026amp;D plans in respect of GaN, InN, AlN, BN and related alloys,\u201d said Ougazzaden, who also leads the MOCVD Lab at GTL. \u201cThis CCS MOCVD tool will be dedicated to the growth of nitride alloy R\u0026amp;D materials and device structures for light emitting sources, solar cells, sensors, and other applications depending on how the semiconductor market evolves.\u201d\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EUsing this system, GTL\u2019s researchers demonstrated full LED structures and High Electron Mobility Transistors with the state-of-the-art performances.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBased in Metz, France at the GTL campus, the UMI-Georgia Tech-CNRS is an international research laboratory established between Georgia Tech and CNRS.
