Gallium oxide (Ga2O3) as an "ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor" material has garnered sustained attention. Ultra-wide bandgap semiconductors fall under the category of "fourth-generation semiconductors," and in comparison to third-generation semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), gallium oxide boasts a bandgap width of 4.9eV, surpassing silicon carbide's 3.2eV and gallium nitride's 3.39eV. A wider bandgap implies that electrons require more energy to transition from the valence band to the conduction band, endowing gallium oxide with characteristics like high voltage resistance, high-temperature tolerance, high power capability, and radiation resistance.

The annealing process, also known as Thermal Annealing, is a crucial step in semiconductor manufacturing.

As a leading upstream graphite material manufacturer in the semiconductor industry, Semicorex prioritizes the availability, usability, and durability of its materials, setting the standard for excellence in the field.

Both epitaxial and diffused wafers are essential materials in semiconductor manufacturing, but they differ significantly in their fabrication processes and target applications. This article delves into the key distinctions between these wafer types.

GaN materials gained prominence following the awarding of the 2014 Nobel Prize in Physics for blue LEDs. Initially entering the public eye through fast-charging applications in consumer electronics, GaN-based power amplifiers and RF devices have also quietly emerged as critical components in 5G base stations. In recent years, GaN-based automotive-grade power devices have shown promise, potentially opening new growth avenues for GaN material applications.

In the high voltage field, particularly for high-voltage devices above 20,000V, the SiC epitaxial technology still faces several challenges. One of the main difficulties is achieving high uniformity, thickness, and doping concentration in the epitaxial layer. For the fabrication of such high-voltage devices, a 200um thick silicon carbide epitaxial wafer with excellent uniformity and concentration is required.
