The CVD process for SiC wafer epitaxy involves the deposition of SiC films onto a SiC substrate using a gas-phase reaction. The SiC precursor gases, typically methyltrichlorosilane (MTS) and ethylene (C2H4), are introduced into a reaction chamber where the SiC substrate is heated to a high temperature (usually between 1400 and 1600 degrees Celsius) under a controlled atmosphere of hydrogen (H2).

Compression molding, isostatic pressing, and rod extrusion are the three most common methods for producing graphite rods, similar to those used for creating graphite tubes.

Specialty graphite is graphite with carbon mass fraction greater than 99.99%, also known as "three high graphite" (high strength, high density, high purity). It is characterized by high strength, high density, high purity, high chemical stability, high thermal and electrical conductivity, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance, strong lubrication and easy processing. Isostatic graphite belongs to specialty graphite.

The history of silicon carbide (SiC) dates back to 1891, when Edward Goodrich Acheson accidentally discovered it while attempting to synthesize artificial diamonds. Acheson heated a mixture of clay (aluminosilicate) and powdered coke (carbon) in an electric furnace. Instead of the expected diamonds, he obtained a bright green crystal adhering to the carbon. This crystal had a hardness second only to diamond, and was thus named carborundum. In 1904, French-Jewish chemist Henri Moissan discovered rare natural silicon carbide minerals while studying meteorite samples from the Diablo Canyon in Arizona, USA. He named these minerals moissanite, and his discovery earned him the 1906 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

At present, the most important direction trend of substrate development is to expand the diameter. The 6-inch mass production line in the global SiC market is maturing, and leading companies have entered the 8-inch market.

​As the world searches for new opportunities in the semiconductor field, Gallium Nitride (GaN) continues to stand out as a potential candidate for future power and RF applications. However, despite its numerous benefits, GaN faces a significant challenge: the absence of P-type products. Why is GaN hailed as the next major semiconductor material, why is the lack of P-type GaN devices a critical drawback, and what does this mean for future designs?
