Supply and sustainability
Purity, defect density, orientation and dopant control dominate usable performance.
Critical-element use, recovery and device lifetime should be assessed at system level.
Strategic context
Included in a strategic or critical-material collection; supply risk depends on grade, source and jurisdiction.
Critical inputs: AlScN
Basis: Public critical-mineral and energy-material assessments should be checked for the target jurisdiction and year.
