In the current global silicon carbide (SiC) market, 8-inch wafers have undoubtedly become one of the hottest topics. TrendForce believes that while processing costs increase when upgrading from 6-inch to 8-inch SiC substrates, the resulting increase in chip output is significant. An 8-inch wafer can...

As two representative materials of wide-bandgap semiconductors, gallium nitride (GaN) currently thrives in the fast charging sector of consumer electronics, while silicon carbide (SiC) is gradually gaining ground in the application scenarios of new energy vehicles. Simultaneously, both are expanding...

Industry reports indicate that since the beginning of this year, the price of mainstream 6-inch SiC substrates has been consistently declining, with a drop of nearly 30%. As of mid-2024, industry insiders in China reveal that the price of 6-inch SiC substrates has fallen below USD 500, approachin...

According to a report from Commercial Times, the increase in production capacity has resulted in an oversupply of 6-inch SiC substrates, leading to a decline in prices. The report indicated that by mid-2024, each piece was priced at less than USD 500 (approximately the manufacturing cost in China...

The application of silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) in the automotive industry seems to be "gradually gaining momentum." Among them, the trend of SiC power devices accelerating their integration into vehicles has become very clear. In recent years, more and more new energy vehicle ...
