UK Nitrides Consortium

Welcome to the home of the UK Nitrides Consortium website at www.uknc.org.

The UK Nitride Consortium was set up by industrial and academic researchers to give them the opportunity to discuss ideas and progress on nitrides in the UK. In particular it seeks to gain maximum intellectual and commercial return for UK investment in this area by encouraging self-coordination of the UK programmes; exploiting existing skills, expertise and relevant equipment already available; through an agreed strategy for research on nitride materials and devices in the UK.
