Progress and Impact of Mass Production of 8-inch SiC Wafers

Progress and Impact of Mass Production of 8-inch SiC Wafers


SiC (Silicon Carbide) is expected to be widely used in inverters and other automotive power devices in 2025. Leading international manufacturers such as Wolfspeed and Coherent have launched mass production of 8-inch SiC wafers, thereby boosting SiC wafer production capacity. Hence, reducing production costs has become the focus of interest in the industry. This report looks into the 8-inch SiC wafer mass production plans and production progress of leading manufacturers, discusses solutions aimed to increase production capacity and reduce production costs, and analyzes the impact of global manufacturers’ efforts to mass produce 8-inch SiC wafers on the industry.
