Aluminium gallium nitride
open-in-new
<h2 id="safety-and-toxicity-aspects">Safety and toxicity aspects</h2> <p>The toxicology of AlGaN has not been fully investigated. The AlGaN dust is an irritant to skin, eyes and lungs. The environment, health and safety aspects of aluminium gallium nitride sources (such as <a href="/facts/Trimethylgallium/xYDBxxHo">trimethylgallium</a> and <a href="/facts/Ammonia/MtLtJFtz">ammonia</a>) and industrial hygiene monitoring studies of standard <a href="/facts/MOVPE/Ldg0BICo">MOVPE</a> sources have been reported recently in a review.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3"><sup>3</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="external-links">External links</h2> <ul><li><a href="http://www.semiconductor-today.com/features/PDF/SemiconductorToday_Mar2014-Gallium-nitride.pdf">Gallium nitride quantum dots and deep UV light emission.</a> GaN in AlN</li></ul> <h2 id="references">References</h2> <ol> <li id="fn:1"><p>Growth and Characterization of Aluminum Gallium Nitride... <a href="http://my.ece.ucsb.edu/Mishra/resgroupfiles/parish.pdf" target="_blank">http://my.ece.ucsb.edu/Mishra/resgroupfiles/parish.pdf</a> <a href="#fnref:1" class="footnote-back-ref">↩</a></p></li> <li id="fn:2"><p>Noguchi Norimichi; Hideki Hirayama; Tohru Yatabe; Norihiko Kamata (2009).
