Translucent, Inc., has designed a proprietary GaN-on-Si wafer template with embedded DBR mirrors for low-cost LED growth application. With its new embedded silicon solution (Mirrored Si™), LEDs can now be grown directly on top of the GaN-on-Si template that includes an embedded DBR mirror, directly lattice matched to the silicon substrate. On top of this DBR mirror is a layer of proprietary patented Rare Earth Oxide (REO), which allows GaN to cap the template and does not require subsequent removal of the substrate. At present, the company i...
