Handle with care: Power and perils of compound semiconductors
In the realm of advanced electronics and photonics, compound semiconductors are the silent enablers of breakthrough performance in many applications. Built from materials like indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) or gallium arsenide (GaAs), these semiconductors enable applications that are beyond the capabilities of silicon devices. Examples include avalanche photodiodes (APDs) for ultra-sensitive infrared detection at eye-safe…

Semiconductor industry strategy 2025: Semiconductors at the heart of software-defined products
Electronics are everywhere. As daily life becomes more digital and more devices become software defined and interconnected, the prevalence of electronics will inevitably rise. Semiconductors are what makes this all possible. So, it is no surprise that the entire semiconductor industry is on a path to being a $1 trillion market by 2030. While accelerating…
