GaN

Soraa, whose name derives from the Japanese word for "sky," grows gallium-nitride crystals atop a layer of gallium nitride - a technology the company calls "GaN on GaN."

They opted to use a wafer that is also made of gallium nitride—an approach called GaN on GaN, based on the abbreviation for the material.

One solution is to grow the LEDs on sapphire, which shrinks and cools at much the same rate as GaN.

Crystals of GaN must be grown at 1000°C, so by the time a new LED made on silicon has cooled, it has already cracked, rendering the devices unusable.
