Global 6 Inches Conductive SiC Wafer Market Growth 2025-2031

The global 6 Inches Conductive SiC Wafer market size is predicted to grow from US$ 785 million in 2025 to US$ 1963 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.5% from 2025 to 2031.

Silicon carbide is an inorganic substance with the chemical formula SiC. It is made of raw materials such as quartz sand, petroleum coke (or coal coke), and sawdust (salt is needed to produce green silicon carbide) through high-temperature smelting in a resistance furnace. Silicon carbide is a semiconductor that exists in nature in the form of the extremely rare mineral moissanite. Since 1893, it has been mass-produced as powder and crystals for use as abrasives, etc. Among non-oxide high-tech refractory raw materials such as C, N, and B, silicon carbide is the most widely used and economical one, which can be called diamond sand or refractory sand.

Wafer refers to the cutting, grinding, and polishing of crystals along a specific crystal direction to obtain a clean single wafer with specific crystal planes and appropriate electrical, optical, and mechanical properties for growing epitaxial layers. Silicon carbide wafer is the core material of the newly developed wide bandgap semiconductor. The devices made with it have the characteristics of high temperature resistance, high voltage resistance, high frequency, high power, and radiation resistance. It has the advantages of fast switching speed and high efficiency, which can greatly reduce product power consumption, improve energy conversion efficiency, and reduce product volume.

Conductive silicon carbide substrates are single crystal slices formed by cutting, grinding, polishing, cleaning and other processes of conductive silicon carbide crystals. As an important raw material for the third-generation semiconductors, single crystal substrate slices can be made into silicon carbide-based power devices through homoepitaxial growth, wafer manufacturing, packaging and testing, and are important basic materials for the development of the third-generation semiconductor industry. Conductive silicon carbide wafers can be used to manufacture power devices such as SiC diodes and metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) through homoepitaxial growth and device manufacturing processes. These devices are widely used in new energy vehicles, photovoltaic power generation, rail transportation, smart grids, aerospace and other fields.

As the size of silicon carbide wafers continues to increase, 6-inch wafers will become mainstream.

According to the survey and statistics of our company's "Semiconductor Research Center", silicon carbide substrate manufacturers are currently mainly distributed in the United States, Europe, Japan and China, especially in the Chinese market. In recent years, investment in silicon carbide related projects has been very active. It is expected that in the next few years, Chinese manufacturers will play an important role in all links of the silicon carbide industry chain. Conductive substrates are widely used in power devices. Fields such as new energy vehicles, photovoltaics, high-speed rail, and industrial power supplies are its downstream markets. Power devices are very important basic components in the power electronics industry. Conductive silicon carbide substrates are mainly used to manufacture power devices. This type of power device is widely used in many aspects such as power conversion and circuit control of power equipment, and is related to all aspects of economy and life. Silicon carbide power devices can withstand high voltage, high temperature, and low loss. These excellent properties are in line with the requirements of power devices, so they have been rapidly promoted and applied in new energy vehicles, photovoltaic power generation and other fields in recent years.
