leading the way to future industrial development

The Nano-Devices and Materials Division was established in 2006, with one of its research groups focusing on GaN-based high power light-emitting diodes (LED) and laser diodes (LDs) with an led flood light system. The division now wants to extend its expertise into the power electronics field.HEMTs are being widely developed on silicon as a route to mass production of high power density devices for radio frequency and power switching applications. Systems built with such devices could be more compact and more power efficient, needing less complex circuitry with fewer passive components and reduced cooling requirements.

SINANO was founded by the Chinese Academy of Science (CAS), the government of Jiangsu Province and the government of Suzhou city. The center’s mission is to carry out fundamental, strategic and prospective research, aiming at world-class technological advancement, meeting China’s national strategic demand and leading the way to future industrial development.
