General description

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a semiconductor based material that consists of a closed packed stacking of double layers of silicon and carbon. It has an excellent thermo-mechanical property that makes it useful in a variety of electronic and optoelectronic applications.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which belongs to one of the four categories of greener alternatives. This enabling product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more information.

Application

SiC is majorly used as a base material for applications such as micro-structures, opto-electronic devices(OLEDs), UV detectors, high temperature electronics (nuclear electronics), high frequency devices
