SiC Substrates & Epitaxy
SiC Epitaxy
Accelerate time-to-market, reduce costs, and improve device performance by building on high-performance SiC epitaxial wafers from Coherent in up to 200 mm diameter.
Coherent offers a total SiC materials solution with options for thick epilayers with or without buffer, low-doped layers, multilayer structures, p-n junctions, embedded/buried structures and contact layers, and more. We support R&D to volume production.
