The growing demand for high speed, high temperature and power handling capabilities have made the semiconductor industry rethink upon the designs and materials used in semiconductors. As various faster and smaller computing devices are coming forth, the use of silicon in semiconductors is making it difficult to sustain Moore's Law. Owing to the unique characteristics of GaN such as superior noise factor, high maximum current, high breakdown voltage, and high oscillation frequency, GaN poses to be a unique material of choice for numerous applications such as military, aerospace and defense sector, automotive sector and high power applications such as industrial, solar, power and wind . GaN is power efficient as it requires less heat sink compared to silicon. Growing application areas as well as increased demand from military is the major driving force for the growth of GaN semiconductor devices market. The increase in demand is mainly due to significant reduction in weight and size of devices obtained by usage of GaN. In addition, developments in improving the breakdown voltage of GaN are expected to boost the usage of GaN in the field of electro-mobility.
