100 mm single-crystal aluminum nitride substrate production release

Morrisville, North Carolina-based HexaTech released a 100 mm single-crystal aluminum nitride substrate into production and immediate commercial availability. The company says its 2-inch, 3-inch, and new 100 mm products are available with standard lead times for optoelectronic and high-power radio-frequency device customers.

The 100 mm release advances HexaTech's U.S.-based aluminum nitride substrate operation beyond the 3-inch format it launched in February. HexaTech says the larger substrate lowers price per unit area, eases insertion into fabrication lines, and supports scaling of devices used in UV-C emitters, high-voltage power conversion, and satellite-communications RF components. The first-party announcement establishes current availability but does not disclose production volume, customer orders, pricing, or the exact equipment used for this product.
