Having been awarded the Defense Production Act Title III gallium nitride (GaN) manufacturing development contract, TriQuint Semiconductor will be supplied GaN based wafers from IQE. The programme is expected to conclude in 2013.
TriQuint is working to increase device yields, lower costs of high power, high frequency 100mm Gallium Nitride wafers and improve time-to-market cycles for defense and commercial GaN integrated circuits.
