Institute of High Pressure Physics

Institute of High Pressure Physics Polish Academy of Sciences joined the Polish Technological Platform on Photonics (PPTF), an organization that gathers various entities operating in Poland in the field of photonics: companies, scientific units, government and local authorities and non-governmental organizations.

IWC PAN is a leader in the field of gallium nitride (GaN) crystallization and production of high-quality GaN substrates for semiconductor lasers and power electronics. For years, we have been developing epitaxial technologies and physics of devices based on GaN. Our laboratories for crystallization as well as studies of the microstructure, optical and electrical properties are an important node on the Map of Polish Research Infrastructure. We also educate and train young people in the field of photonic technologies.

The PPTF mission is to increase the innovativeness of the Polish photonic industry. As a member of PPTF, the Institute of High Pressure Physics PAS we will cooperate for the development of photonics and microelectronics by the development of new technologies and opto-electronic products, improvement of staff qualifications and the extension of the range of applications of photonic technologies in Poland.
