GaN nanowire start-up Nanocrystal emerges out of stealth with scalable nanowire process

Advanced semiconductor wafer start-up Nanocrystal emerged from stealth mode recently and disclosed a $450,000 seed round received from New Mexico’s Verge Fund this past August. Nanocrystal is refining a process to grow gallium nitride (GaN) nanowires on standard substrates like sapphire, silicon, an...
