Those critical technologies are being produced by so less countries.

About GaN transistors;

Applications

GaN-based violet laser diodes are used to read Blu-ray Discs. When doped with a suitable transition metal such as manganese, GaN is a promising spintronics material (magnetic semiconductors). The mixture of GaN with In (InGaN) or Al (AlGaN) with a band gap dependent on ratio of In or Al to GaN allows the manufacture of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with colors that can go from red to blue.

GaN HEMTs have been offered commercially since 2006, and have found immediate use in various wireless infrastructure applications due to their high efficiency and high voltage operation. Second generation technology with shorter gate lengths will be addressing higher frequency telecom and aerospace applications. GaN based MOSFET and MESFET transistors also offer many advantages in high power electronics, especially in automotive and electric car applications. Nanotubes of GaN are proposed for applications in nanoscale electronics, optoelectronics and biochemical-sensing applications.

They are also useful in military electronics such as Active Electronically Scanned Array radars.
GaN has been found to be biocompatible. This may lead to implants of electrodes and electronics in living organisms.
 
Aselsan InP InGaAsP based QWIP IR detectors, All radar programs' (CAFRAD APAR, AESA, Air Defence, Fire Control) Transmitter/Receiver modules, Integrated Circuits, Electronic warfare systems will also be manufactured in same installation to be opened in 2013.

great news...

why is this GaN important for high-power electronics applications for instance a radar as stated?... GaN has a high heat capacity therefore GaN transistors can operate at high voltages better. As we all know one of the main issues with a radar is to to remove heat from the radar transmitter high-voltage RF energy modules...so simply a GaN transistor performs better in general and at certain frequencies in particular because of the above mentioned peculiarities of GaN.

a logical conclusion on the performance of a radar with the GaN transistor might be as follows;

-more power

-faster

-longer life cycle

-cost less maintenance

Could you please explain it so that evryone understands what it means?
Didnt see the rest,very interesting ty.
