Epitaxial growth refers to the process of growing a crystallographically well-ordered monocrystalline layer on a substrate. Generally speaking, epitaxial growth involves the cultivation of a crystal layer on a single-crystal substrate, with the grown layer sharing the same crystallographic orientation as the original substrate. Epitaxy is extensively utilized in semiconductor manufacturing, such as the production of epitaxial silicon wafers in the integrated circuit industry.

Silicon Carbide generally uses the PVT method, with a temperature of more than 2000 degrees, a long processing cycle, and low output, so the cost of Silicon Carbide substrates is very high.

Currently, silicon carbide (SiC) is a highly active area of research in thermal conductive ceramic materials both domestically and internationally.

The four main molding methods for graphite molding are: extrusion molding, molding, vibratory molding and isostatic molding. Most of the common carbon/graphite materials on the market are molded by hot extrusion and molding (cold or hot), and isostatic molding is a method with leading molding performance. Vibration molding is generally used to manufacture medium and coarse structural graphite, particle size between 0.5-2mm particle size, generally dominated by di-roasted graphitized products, density between 1.55-1.75kg/m³, coarser particles, rougher surface, can not be used for precision machining. It is mainly used in chemical industry and metal smelting.

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.

Silicon carbide (SiC) has important applications in areas such as power electronics, high-frequency RF devices, and sensors for high-temperature-resistant environments due to its excellent physicochemical properties. However, the slicing operation during SiC wafer processing introduces damages on the surface, which, if left untreated, can expand during the subsequent epitaxial growth process and form epitaxial defects, thus affecting the yield of the device.
