Nitek, Inc is intensely focused on research in finding better ways of converting renewable sources of energy to electrical energy. This is both important and challenging. Modern high power electronics forms the core on which the basic foundation of information, communication and electric power control technologies hinges which are so critically needed to support human society. Due to its various material advantages gallium nitride alloy has garnered huge attention in the field of high power high voltage amplifiers and its applications in above mentioned technologies of interest. Nitek has developed high performance insulated gate based power amplifiers. The company specializes in fabricating such devices with its novel digital dielectric deposition (DDD) technique (give links to research and papers). Nitek is also focusing on other novel device concepts. For more information please read the research sections on this topic.
In III-N material and device technology, it is well known that substrate quality has a major influence on the performance of device structure grown over it. At Nitek, Inc we have a dedicated team of scientists fabricating and developing novel next generation substrate materials for both optoelectronic and electronic devices. Our primary focus is in developing high quality thick AlInGaN substrates which have superior thermal management, lower defects and provide enhanced device lifetimes and performances.

With the “visible” light emission device technology reaching its maturity, many groups have shifted their research focus towards the shorter wavelength ultraviolet (UV) devices [Asif Khan et al. Nature Photonics (Feb.2008) article titled “Ultraviolet light-emitting diodes based on group three nitrides”]. This interest is fueled by their applications’ potential in air-water purification, germicidal and bio-medical (ex. dermatology as shown in the image) instrumentation systems. These markets exceed several billion dollars thereby providing a strong impetus for the research. We at NITEK, Inc are a world’s premier group in fabricating such UV and deep UV light emitting diodes which cover a broad spectral emission wavelength range of 250 nm -365 nm.
