5 terms
gallium nitride technical
"a leader in GaNFast™ gallium nitride (GaN) and GeneSiC™ silicon carbide (SiC)"
Gallium nitride is a durable semiconductor material used to make electronic components that switch faster, handle higher voltages, and waste less energy than older silicon parts. Think of it as a lighter, more efficient motor in an appliance: it lets devices shrink, run cooler and save power, which can lower manufacturing costs, enable new products and boost sales or margins for companies that adopt it—key factors investors watch.
silicon carbide technical
"GaNFast™ gallium nitride (GaN) and GeneSiC™ silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors"
Silicon carbide is a hard, durable material made from silicon and carbon, often used in industrial applications like cutting tools and electronics. Its ability to withstand high temperatures and conduct electricity efficiently makes it valuable in manufacturing advanced electronic devices. For investors, companies working with silicon carbide are seen as key players in the growing market for high-performance electronics and energy-efficient technologies.
fet technical
"employs advanced 650 V and 100 V GaNFast FETs in a three-level half-bridge"
FET stands for frozen embryo transfer, a fertility procedure in which an embryo created earlier and stored in cold conditions is thawed and implanted into a uterus. For investors, FET matters because its success rates, demand trends, regulatory changes, and cost structure directly affect clinics, drugmakers, and device suppliers in the reproductive-health sector — think of it as restarting and using something saved for later, where outcomes influence revenue and patient volume.
hvdc technical
"enable high–power-density module designs for next-generation HVDC AI data centers"
HVDC, short for high‑voltage direct current, is a way of transmitting electricity as a steady one‑direction flow over long distances or undersea links instead of the usual back‑and‑forth alternating current. Like a high‑speed, nonstop pipeline for power, it cuts energy loss and can link different power grids or distant renewable sites more efficiently. Investors watch HVDC projects because they are large, long‑lived infrastructure investments that affect utility revenue, grid capacity, construction and regulatory risk, and the economics of power supply.
mosfets technical
"ultra-high-voltage GeneSiC silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs in power module"
A MOSFET is a tiny electronic switch used inside chips and power circuits to control the flow of electricity, functioning much like a faucet that opens and closes to let current move when needed. Investors care because MOSFETs directly affect how fast, efficient and small electronic devices and power systems can be, so supply, performance improvements or cost changes in MOSFETs can impact manufacturers’ margins, product competitiveness and capital spending.
