SINGLE CRYSTALS OF β-Ga2 O3 FOR POWER ELECRONICS APPLICATIONS

Power electronics has become more focused research field with the advancement of Electrical vehicles, chips for artificial intelligence and many more technologically advanced devices. The diodes, transistors, FETs, IGBTs and other device structures were improved with conventional materials, like, Silicon, Gallium Arsenide, etc., and advanced materials, like Galium Nitride, Silicon Carbide and Gallium Oxide. An effort has been made to highlight recent advances or improvement in properties of Gallium Oxide with single crystal growth and processing for potential application in Power Electronics[1-12]. The details are elaborated with respect to growth procedure and processing sequences.
