Fulfilling the PioneerGaN’s goal GaN based field effect vertical transistors were manufactured. The mono-crystal free-standing ammono-thermal GaN was used as the substrate material. The high speed switching transistors vertical construction allows for its integration with a laser diode. The two device microstructure allows for the laser work in the pulse mode which in turn offers an advantage in the form of high brightness and high beam quality combined with lower thermal effect, ensuring longer laser’s life-time and work quality. With the use of the stepper lithography technology it was possible to obtain the 400mm/mm2 gate length to device area ration. This translates to the 100A – 250A current range and the 70V break-down voltage for the transistor.
The above features enable the device to be applied in many new optoelectronical areas e.i. LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) systems, spectroscopy in various areas, medicine, pico-projectors, laser TVs, multi-platform laser displays, where the availability of high optical power is paramount.

The principle project’s objective is to develop a scalable fabrication technology of type I and II GaSb/AlSb, InAs/AlSb and InAs/GaSb superlattice heterostructures with absorption edge in the short- (SWIR, 1.5 – 3 μm), the mid- (MWIR, 3 – 5 μm), the long- (LWIR, 8 – 14 μm) and the very long - infrared wavelength spectral ranges. The scalable photonic heterostructures applied in advanced infrared detection and emission devices customized to end-user specifications will be the products of the project.
In order to achieve its premises, the project has been divided into two phases - the research and the preparation for implementation. The research phase contains nine work tasks, of which eight pertain to industrial research, and is focused on advancing the epitaxy technology and the heterostructures characterization to technology readiness level VI. During work task 9 experimental development works aiming at the improvement of the repeatability of the technology will be carried out in order to bring the technology readiness up to level VII, what will allow to move to the implementation phase. Both superlattices and the complex heterostructures, fabricated with the use of to be developed technology will be targeted to small and medium niche production entities. These specialized products are usually very costly, due to difficulties in the availability of Hi-Tech facilities and the experienced and interdisciplinary staff.
