Wafer scrap rates have reached up to 5 to 10 percent, a rate that is hard to bear for manufacturers when the price for a wafer is NT$300,000, he said. The institute uses a nanosecond pulsed laser ...

We developed a new backside contact formation process for SiC power devices based on pulsed laser annealing providing an ohmic contact with lower contact resistance and better adhesion properties than ...

Taiwan's National Applied Research Laboratories and semiconductor equipment manufacturer Deuvtek have developed infrared nanosecond laser technology for SiC wafer grinding that cuts processing ...

Global silicon carbide (SiC) wafer shipments hit a record high in 2024, with China driving the surge, according to statistics from Fuji Keizai. Chinese shipments grew 81.9% year-over-year ...

Abstract: Pulsed power is widely used for the excitation of pulsed lasers, especially the ultraviolet excimer lasers. Experiments have been carried out to demonstrate the excitation of KrF excimer ...

Silicon carbide is used to make semiconductor wafers. Denso is a maker of auto parts, and Mitsubishi Electric serves many industries, including transportation, defense, semiconductors and energy.

This advanced ceramic material offers practical laser generation and is anticipated to be a highly attractive alternative to conventional glass and single-crystal laser technologies in the future.

In this study, femtosecond laser manufacturing technology is used to generate a modified layer inside the 4H-SiC wafer for slicing. The formation mechanism of the modified layers under various laser ...
