SiC Substrate
Description
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a binary compound of Group IV-IV, it's the only stable solid compound in Group IV of the Periodic Table, It's an important semiconductor. SiC has excellent thermal, mechanical, chemical and electrical properties, which make it to be the one of the best materials for making high-temperature, high-frequency, and high-power electronic devices, the SiC also can be used as a substrate material for GaN-based blue light-emitting diodes. At present, 4H-SiC is the mainstream products in the market, and the conductivity type is divided into semi-insulating type and N type.
