Today, Onsemi announced on its official website that it has reached an agreement with Qorvo to acquire the SiC JFET technology business and Qorvo's subsidiary.

Semiconductor materials can be divided into three generations according to the time sequence. The first generation of germanium, silicon and other common monomaterials, which is characterised by convenient switching, generally used in integrated circuits. The second generation of gallium arsenide, indium phosphide and other compound semiconductors, mainly used for light-emitting and communication materials.

As a third-generation semiconductor material, Gallium Nitride is often compared with Silicon Carbide. Gallium Nitride still demonstrates its superiority with its large bandgap, high breakdown voltage, high thermal conductivity, high saturated electron drift velocity and strong radiation resistance. But it is undeniable that, like Silicon Carbide, Gallium Nitride also has various technical difficulties.

In conclusion, both graphitization and carbonization are industrial processes that involve carbon either as a reactant or a product. Carbonization refers to the process of converting organic matter into carbon, while graphitization involves transforming carbon into graphite. Therefore, carbonization is classified as a chemical change, whereas graphitization is recognized as a microstructural change.

The thermal conductivity of bulk 3C-SiC, recently measured, is the second-highest among inch-scale large crystals, ranking just below diamond. Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide bandgap semiconductor extensively used in electronic applications, and it exists in various crystalline forms known as polytypes. Managing high localized heat flux is a significant challenge in power electronics, as it can lead to device overheating and long-term performance and reliability issues.

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic materials possess a range of excellent properties, including high-temperature strength, strong oxidation resistance, superior wear resistance, thermal stability, low thermal expansion coefficient, high thermal conductivity, high hardness, thermal shock resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance. These characteristics make SiC ceramics increasingly applicable in various fields such as automotive, mechanical and chemical industries, environmental protection, space technology, information electronics, and energy. SiC ceramics have become an irreplaceable structural ceramic material in many industrial sectors due to their outstanding performance.
