- The Impossible Light Gallium Nitride, Corporate Betrayal, and the Invention of Blue Light · Liszt Think
For decades, the electronics industry deemed a bright blue LED physically impossible.
- Building the Reactor by Hand…rapped in heating elements and gas lines, all assembled from parts sourced individually. No commercial reactor could do what he needed. The two-flow MOCVD reactor represented his answer to problems that had defeated better-equipped laboratories. Conventional reactors introduced precursor gases from a…
- A Window in the Gallium Nitride…rial from highly resistive to conductive. Nakamura read their method and adapted it to his own reactor, his own films, his own process. The two-flow MOCVD reactor occupied the center of his laboratory, a machine of his own design assembled from parts that Nichia’s machine shop had fabricated to his sp…
- The First Blue Glow…y part. Getting them to work together in a single device structure would require everything he had learned and a few things he had not. The two-flow MOCVD reactor sat against the wall, its custom gas lines and water-cooled chamber now familiar territory after years of failed growths. Nakamura had buil…
