India develops gallium nitride chip far faster than silicon

Original: India just built a chip that runs 300 times faster than the silicon in most electronics. It's smaller than a fingernail.

India's Defence Research and Development Organisation says its Solid State Physics Laboratory has indigenously developed gallium nitride semiconductor chips, smaller than a fingernail, that can run around 300 times faster than the silicon used in most electronics. The chips are intended for next-generation radar and electronic warfare systems, marking a step toward homegrown advanced defence technology.

Why now: Claims of a major indigenous semiconductor breakthrough for Indian defence systems have drawn attention to India's push for technological self-reliance.
