Oxidation processes play a critical role in preventing such problems by creating a protective layer on the wafer, known as the oxide layer, which acts as a barrier between different chemicals.

Silicon carbide ceramics offer numerous advantages in the optical fiber industry, including high-temperature stability, low thermal expansion coefficient, low loss and damage threshold, mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, and low dielectric constant. These properties make SiC ceramics an ideal material for fiber optic sensors, lasers, and high-power optical fiber applications. As demand in the optical fiber field increases, the application prospects for silicon carbide ceramics will become increasingly prominent.

The tray (base) that supports SiC wafers, also known as a "susceptor," is a core component of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. And what exactly is this susceptor that carries the wafers?

The first generation of semiconductor materials is mainly represented by silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge), which began to rise in the 1950s. Germanium was dominant in the early days and was mainly used in low-voltage, low-frequency, medium-power transistors and photodetectors, but due to its poor high temperature resistance and radiation resistance, it was gradually replaced by silicon devices in the late 1960s. Silicon is still the main semiconductor material in the field of microelectronics due to its high technological maturity and cost advantages.

Semicorex's SiC crystal growth furnace component, the porous graphite barrel, will bring three major benefits and can effectively strengthen the competitiveness of domestic SiC substrates:

Tantalum carbide coating is an important high-strength, corrosion-resistant and chemically stable high-temperature structural material with a melting point of up to 4273 °C, one of the several compounds with the highest temperature resistance. It has excellent high-temperature mechanical properties, resistance to high-speed airflow scouring, ablation resistance, and good chemical and mechanical compatibility with graphite and carbon/carbon composites. Therefore, in the epitaxial process of GaN LEDs and SiC power devices such as MOCVD, TaC coating has excellent acid and alkali resistance to H2, HCl, NH3, which can completely protect the graphite substrate material and purify the growth environment.
