Alternative To Silicon Chip Invented By Student
The new transistor uses a compound material known as gallium nitride (GaN), which has remarkable material properties.

Wow, this could really be the Next Big Thing.

Time to go buy those Gallium stocks. The GaN MOSFETS function in high temperature, high radioactive environments. Guess what industry needs that sort of requirement.

um.. catering?

Interesting -- it's not often that the newer technology is both more efficient and more robust. Seems like there's almost always a tradeoff somewhere.
