Graphite is vital in producing Silicon Carbide (SiC) semiconductors, known for their exceptional thermal and electrical properties. This makes SiC ideal for high-power, high-temperature, and high-frequency applications. In SiC semiconductor manufacturing, graphite is commonly used for crucibles, heaters, and other high-temperature processing components due to its excellent thermal conductivity, chemical stability, and resistance to thermal shock.

Currently, most SiC substrate manufacturers use a new crucible thermal field process design with porous graphite cylinders: placing high-purity SiC particle raw materials between the graphite crucible wall and the porous graphite cylinder, while deepening the entire crucible and increasing the crucible diameter.

As technology nodes continue to shrink, the formation of ultra-shallow junctions presents significant challenges. Thermal annealing processes including Rapid thermal annealing (RTA) and flash lamp annealing (FLA) are vital techniques that maintain high impurity activation rates while minimizing diffusion, ensuring optimal device performance.

As a wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductor material, SiC's wider energy difference gives it higher thermal and electronic properties compared to traditional Si. This feature enables power devices to operate at higher temperatures, frequencies and voltages.

Ion implantation is a method of semiconductor doping and one of the main processes in semiconductor manufacturing.

Defect-free epitaxial growth occurs when one crystal lattice has nearly identical lattice constants to another. Growth happens when lattice sites of the two lattices at the interface region are approximately matched, which is possible with a small lattice mismatch (less than 0.1%). This approximate matching is achieved even with elastic strain at the interface, where each atom is slightly displaced from its original position in the boundary layer. While a small amount of strain is tolerable for thin layers and even desirable for quantum well lasers, the strain energy stored in the crystal is generally lowered by the formation of misfit dislocations, which involve a missing row of atoms in one lattice.
