Positive outlook of silicon carbide (sic) towards semiconductor industry

Silicon carbide-based semiconductors offer greater thermal conductivity, higher electron mobility, and lower power dissipation. SiC diodes and transistors can also be activated at higher frequencies and temperatures without sacrificing reliability. The core uses for SiC devices, such as Schottky diodes and FET /MOSFET transistors, include converters, inverters, power supplies, battery chargers, and motor control systems.

Power devices, mainly MOSFETs, have to bear extremely high voltages. SiC semiconductors can bear high voltages, extending from 600 V to several thousand volts. SiC has higher fixing concentrations than silicon and consist of very thin drift layers. Theoretically, at high voltage, the resistance of the drift layer per unit area can be reduced to 1/300 of the silicon resistance.
