Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic is a type of advanced ceramic material known for its exceptional properties and wide range of applications. It is composed of silicon (Si) and carbon (C) atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure, resulting in a hard and strong material with excellent thermal and electrical conductivity.

Silicon Carbide (SiC) has emerged as a key material in the field of semiconductor technology, offering exceptional properties that make it highly desirable for various electronic and optoelectronic applications. The production of high-quality SiC single crystals is crucial for advancing the capabilities of devices such as power electronics, LEDs, and high-frequency devices. In this article, we delve into the significance of porous graphite in the Physical Vapor Transport (PVT) method for 4H-SiC single crystal growth.

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.

The Silicon Carbide (SiC) production process encompasses the preparation of substrate and epitaxy from the materials side, followed by chip design and manufacturing, device packaging, and finally, distribution to downstream application markets. Among these stages, substrate material processing is the most challenging aspect of the SiC industry. SiC substrates are both hard and brittle, making cutting, grinding, and polishing extremely difficult. This increases the likelihood of defects during processing and reduces the yield rate. Currently, major international SiC manufacturers are planning to transition from 6-inch to 8-inch SiC wafers. Overcoming the challenges associated with 8-inch substrates has become a critical benchmark for the SiC industry. This article will introduce the key parameters of SiC substrates.

Semiconductors are materials whose electrical conductivity at room temperature lies between that of insulators and conductors. By introducing impurities, a process known as doping, these materials can become conductors.
