Kubos Semiconductors, a microLED material technology firm, has secured a funding round of $2 million to accelerate the advancement of its cubic GaN technology, aimed at enhancing the efficiency of red microLEDs. 

Kubos Semiconductors, a microLED material technology company, has announced that it has won a £700,000 Future Economy Investor Partnerships (FEIP) grant from Innovate UK, the UK government’s innovation agency.

Kubos Semiconductors Ltd, the developer of LEDs based on cubic Gallium Nitride (GaN), in collaboration with researchers at Manchester and Cambridge Universities, have identified the potential for Kubos’ proprietary material to deliver LEDs capable of switching at significantly faster speeds than those produced in the hexagonal crystal phase.
