On June 1, SDTY Advanced Materials Technology Group, China's leading silicon carbide (SiC) substrate material technology company, issued an announcement that the company will invest 2 billion yuan to build a new silicon carbide semiconductor material production base.
SDTY is China's leading manufacturer of silicon carbide (SiC) substrate materials for wide-bandgap semiconductors (third-generation semiconductors). At present, the silicon carbide semiconductors developed by the company are widely used in 5G communications, national defense and military industry, aerospace, new energy vehicles, and electric power.
According to statistics from industry consulting agency Yole, SDTY ranks among the top three in the world's semi-insulating silicon carbide substrate market share in 2019 and 2020.
SDTY's silicon carbide substrates can be divided into semi-insulating substrates and conductive substrates. The former can be made into microwave radio frequency devices and used in information communications, radio detection and other fields; the latter can be made into MOSFETs, IGBTs and other power Devices are used in new energy vehicles, rail transit, and high-power transmission and transformation.
