#010: How Gallium Nitride (GaN) is Changing the World /w Award-winning Prof. Martin Kuball - Innovational Correctness | Lyssna här

This episode explores a special material called gallium nitride (GaN) that is not only a super-efficient semiconductor but is also changing the tech industry and is destined to disrupt the established silicon industry. GaN tech could save 10% of the electricity consumption in the US alone. And consumers can already purchase products using this high-tech material. To further explore this fascinating material, I interview the multi-award-winning professor Martin Kuball.

This episode will explain:

What gallium nitride (GaN) is
The properties that make this material extraordinary
What advantages GaN has compared to silicon
How GaN is disrupting the silicon industry
What challenges there are when developing GaN devices
The common misconceptions people have about GaN and what aspects are over-hyped
What it really takes to go from research to groundbreaking innovation and how much effort goes into producing next-generation technologies
How our future could look like once GaN and next generations batteries are widely deployed
What types of skills researchers need in order to go from research to product
And finally, the biggest surprises and breakthroughs my guest has had during his career as a scientist
