GaN on Silicon – Inherent Unique Selling Points

• Better Thermal Performance that provides 3 degrees of leverage• Lower LED operating temp Higher reliability

• Simpler heat sink Lower system cost

• Higher drive current cost down through more lumens per die area

• Improved Hot-Cold factor

• Focussed light emitting surface (smaller etendue)• Surface emitter V.S. volume emitter: How “spread out” the light is

• Simpler and lower cost optical system

• Better lm/W maintenance when scaling up die size

• Better uniformity• Better process control for target wavelength

• Higher wavelength binning yield Lower cost for LEDs with tight

binning requests

• Sharper wavelength peak for big die

• Better colour control for a high power LED
