Abstract
Gallium nitride (GaN) provides clear advantages over other technologies such as gallium arsenide (GaAs) for high power solid state radio frequency (RF) applications. However Europe is currently reliant on other countries, in particular the US, for GaN components and systems. This paper summarises recent research into GaN within Europe and the progress towards establishing an independent European supply chain.
