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.

As global acceptance of electric vehicles gradually increases, Silicon Carbide (SiC) will encounter novel growth opportunities in the forthcoming decade. It is anticipated that manufacturers of power semiconductors and operators in the automotive industry will participate more actively in the construction of this sector’s value chain.

A Dummy Wafer is a specialized wafer utilized primarily to fill machine equipment during the wafer manufacturing process.

When producing large-sized GaN single crystal substrates, HVPE is currently the best choice for commercialization. However, the back carrier concentration of the grown GaN cannot be precisely controlled.

Silicon wafer surface polishing is a crucial process in semiconductor manufacturing. Its primary goal is to achieve extremely high standards of surface flatness and roughness by removing micro-defects, layers of stress damage, and contamination from impurities such as metal ions.

Isostatic graphite is a type of graphite with an ultra-fine grain. It is used for applications where the mechanical properties of other fine-grained graphites are inadequate.
