a semiconductor compound of gallium and arsenic used for the fabrication of semiconductor devices. Gallium arsenide has much greater mobility than silicon.
GaAs. Used in microwave circuits, among other things.
Microelectronics wafer material typically used for high-speed circuit designs.
Compound used to produce light-emitting diodes and very fast integrated circuits.
A microelectronics process technology used for high-speed applications. Gallium arsenide semiconductors can switch faster than silicon-based semiconductors because the material has approximately six times greater electron mobility than silicon.
A chemical compound comprised of gallium and arsenic. It is a semiconductor that is used to make devices such as RF power integrated circuits. GaAs integrated circuits are commonly used in todayÕs mobile phones.
A 3:5 valence high-speed semiconductor formed from a mixture of gallium and arsenic. GaAs transistors are approximately eight times faster than their silicon equivalents and use approximately one tenth of the power, but the material is difficult to manufacture and to work with.
Semiconductor fabrication technique which does away with silicon as the substrate for chip manufacture and uses gallium arsenide (GaA) instead. However, fabrication is expensive, compared with CMOS, and chip yields are low. This has limited its use to supercomputer and military applications. See Silicon/germanium.
The semiconductor material used in manufacturing the GEN III photocathode.
A compound semiconductor material that allows transistors and integrated circuits to operate much more rapidly than similar devices made of silicon. Much more difficult, and hence more expensive, to manufacture than silicon.
a semiconductor formed by combining gallium, Ga and arsenic, As. Gallium arsenide has a higher electron mobility , operates at higher temperatures and provides higher frequency performance than silicon. Gallium arsenide use has increased in recent years due to cell phones but is still a small fraction of silicon's usage due to difficulties in gallium arsenide fabrication.
A crystalline, high-efficiency semiconductor/photovoltaic material.
is an alloy of gallium and arsenic compound used as the base material for chips. This process technology is several times faster than silicon and enables wireless transmissions that can broadcast and receive hundreds of video channels with stereo audio and data.
