Gallium is an interesting element. When you look at it, it is a silvery metal that doesn’t seem to be anything special. When ...

The molten gallium sulfides fluxed the lanthanum compounds and incorporated them into the melt at temperatures much lower than their respective melting points. The viscosity of the melt is low enough, ...

And of course, at that point you have to measure all the parameters of the switching ... if the equipment is not properly designed, you risk melting the needle as well as the wafer and all the ...

Gallium melts near room temperature and has one of the largest liquid ranges of any metal, so it has found use in high-temperature thermometers amongst other things. It easily forms alloys with most ...

Scientists in Australia are exploring the possibility of extracting gallium and germanium as byproducts of mining operations. Both materials are used in semiconductor manufacturing but have been ...

China's Ministry of State Security (MSS) has publicized a case involving a failed attempt by Chinese and foreign parties to smuggle gallium out of the country, as gallium is a critical mineral for ...

Texas Instruments (TXN) announced it has begun production of gallium nitride-based power semiconductors at its factory in Aizu, Japan. Coupled with its existing GaN manufacturing in Dallas ...
