Currently, many semiconductor devices employ mesa device structures, which are predominantly created through two types of etching: wet etching and dry etching. While the simple and rapid wet etching plays a significant role in semiconductor device fabrication, it has inherent drawbacks such as isotropic etching and poor uniformity, which result in limited control when transferring small-sized patterns. Dry etching, however, with its high anisotropy, good uniformity, and repeatability, has become prominent in semiconductor device fabrication processes. The term “dry etching” broadly refers to any non-wet etching technology used for removing surface materials and transferring micro and nano patterns, including laser etching, plasma etching, and chemical vapor etching. The dry etching discussed in this text specifically pertains to the narrow application of processes using plasma discharge—either physical or chemical—to modify material surfaces.

Within the silicon carbide (SiC) industry chain, substrate suppliers hold significant leverage, primarily due to value distribution. SiC substrates account for 47% of the total value, followed by epitaxial layers at 23%, while device design and manufacturing constitute the remaining 30%. This inverted value chain stems from the high technological barriers inherent to substrate and epitaxial layer production. Three major challenges plague SiC substrate growth: stringent growth conditions, slow growth rates, and demanding crystallographic requirements. These complexities contribute to increased processing difficulty, ultimately resulting in low product yields and high costs. Furthermore, the epitaxial layer’s thickness and doping concentration are critical parameters directly impacting the final device performance.

As a leading upstream graphite material manufacturer in the semiconductor industry, Semicorex prioritizes the availability, usability, and durability of its materials, setting the standard for excellence in the field.

The suitability of viscose-based carbon fiber for insulation systems in high-temperature induction heating environments is primarily due to its key properties, including low thermal conductivity, high thermal stability, excellent thermal shock resistance, high purity and low impurity content, and lightweight processability. These properties work together to make it a highly efficient, clean, and reliable insulation material for extreme high-temperature environments, possessing irreplaceable strategic value, especially in high-end fields such as aerospace and semiconductor manufacturing.
