zonat
Zonat is a fictional material used in speculative materials science and science fiction to illustrate advanced semiconductors. It is described as a crystalline solid with a lattice that can be tetragonal or hexagonal and is commonly presented as a wide-bandgap semiconductor suitable for high-temperature and radiation-rich environments. In many depictions, zonat is categorized as a nitride or oxide-based compound, but there is no real-world synthesis or verified data.
Reported properties include a bandgap in the range of 2.0 to 2.6 eV, high thermal stability, a
Within fictional production narratives, zonat is said to be produced by methods such as chemical vapor deposition,
Proposed applications include ultraviolet to visible photodetectors, light-emitting devices, high-temperature electronics for aerospace, and radiation-hard sensors.
Because zonat has no experimental verification as a real material, references to it appear in speculative,
