We know that further epitaxial layers need to be built on top of some wafer substrates for device fabrication, typically LED light-emitting devices, which require GaAs epitaxial layers on top of silicon substrates; SiC epitaxial layers are grown on top of conductive SiC substrates for building devices such as SBDs, MOSFETs, etc. for high voltage, high current and other power applications; GaN epitaxial layers are built on top of semi-insulating SiC substrates for building HEMTs and other RF applications.

Currently, most SiC substrate manufacturers use a new crucible thermal field process design with porous graphite cylinders: placing high-purity SiC particle raw materials between the graphite crucible wall and the porous graphite cylinder, while deepening the entire crucible and increasing the crucible diameter.

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.

Common thin films are mainly divided into three categories: semiconductor thin films, dielectric thin films, and metal/metal compound thin films.

In high-performance automotive engineering, shifting from traditional cast iron to carbon ceramic brakes marks a significant advancement. Semicorex GT Version of carbon ceramic brakes employs advanced materials to push the limits of stopping power and handling.

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.
