In order to introduce the SiC coated graphite susceptor, it's important to understand its application. When manufacturing devices, further epitaxial layers are required to be built on some wafer substrates.

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.

Graphite is vital in producing Silicon Carbide (SiC) semiconductors, known for their exceptional thermal and electrical properties. This makes SiC ideal for high-power, high-temperature, and high-frequency applications. In SiC semiconductor manufacturing, graphite is commonly used for crucibles, heaters, and other high-temperature processing components due to its excellent thermal conductivity, chemical stability, and resistance to thermal shock.

Carbon-based materials such as graphite, carbon fibers, and carbon/carbon (C/C) composites are known for their high specific strength, high specific modulus, and excellent thermal properties, making them suitable for a wide range of high-temperature applications. These materials are widely utilized in aerospace, chemical engineering, and energy storage. However, their susceptibility to oxidation and corrosion in high-temperature environments, along with poor scratch resistance, restricts their further application.
