Difference Between Prime and Research Grade Silicon Carbide Wafers
The difference of Prime grade and Research grade SiC:
- “Prime grade” with useable area>/=90%,defect density i.s MPD</=5/cm^2,resistivity uniformity >/=90%, best "thickness, warp & bow" value, No Surface defects
- “Research grade” with useable area>/=80%,defect density i.s MPD</=10/cm^2, resistivity uniformity >/=80%, better "thickness, warp & bow" value, Very few and small Surface defects

What is Poly Silicon Carbide?
Polycrystalline silicon carbide, also known as poly-SiC, is a compound of silicon and carbon. Silicon carbide (SiC) has been used in various applications due to its excellent properties, such as its hardness, high temperature resistance, chemical resistance, and high thermal conductivity.
In a polycrystalline state, a material consists of numerous small crystalline regions or grains, each of which may have a different orientation, which can affect its overall properties. The manufacturing process can greatly influence the properties of polycrystalline materials.
Poly-SiC is used in a variety of applications, including electronics, due to its semi-conducting properties, and in mechanical systems where high-temperature stability, hardness, and chemical resistance are necessary. It's particularly prevalent in power electronics, such as power semiconductors, due to its high breakdown electric field strength and high thermal conductivity, which can enhance system performance and reliability.
As of my knowledge cutoff in 2021, research continues to explore new uses for Poly-SiC and ways to improve its manufacturing processes.
