What semiconductors are used in 5G?

RFICs capable of sending and receiving data at 5G speeds are usually made from specialized “III-V” (or “3-5” referring to columns in the periodic table of the elements). The III-V compound semiconductor materials include gallium-nitride (GaN) and gallium-arsenide (GaAs) on 150 mm wafers.
