Technology is evolving at such a rapid pace that it’s leaving Moore’s Law behind. And the rapid growth of critical technologies, including telecommunications, electric mobility, and energy-efficient lighting, requires high-power, high-frequency electronic systems.
A promising solution is gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductors, which can tolerate higher power density and can operate at higher voltages.
Around a decade ago, a septet of researchers, scientists and professors at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) realised the element’s potential and proposed establishing a GaN foundry to the Indian government. In the meantime, CEO Hareesh Chandrasekar, Madhusudan Atre, Mayank Shrivastava, Director Muralidharan Rangarajan, Shankar Kumar Selvaraja, Digbijoy Nath, and Managing Director Srinivasan Raghavan set up the deeptech startup AGNIT Semiconductors in 2019.
