Silicon Carbide Wafers
The future of semiconductors that power our electronics
Pallidus has developed a transformative technology - unlike any other on the market - to manufacture high quality silicon carbide wafers with better yields and more reliability.
What is Silicon Carbide?
Envision a realm where the fusion of sand and coal gives rise to a remarkable creation. This is exactly what transpires with silicon carbide (SiC) – a composite comprised of silicon from silica sand and carbon, such as coal. These elements unite to construct a distinctive crystal arrangement, endowing SiC with its extraordinary characteristics. SiC wafers, small, thin slices or substrates made from SiC crystals, serve as a fundamental material for manufacturing electronic devices and components.
Silicon carbide wafers power devices that run at higher temperatures, save significant energy, and operate more efficiently than silicon-based devices for a variety of applications from electric vehicles to renewable energy systems.
The Pallidus Advantage
Pallidus has developed a transformative technology to manufacture high quality silicon carbide wafers with higher yields and more reliability which can ultimately improve customer profitability. Pallidus has a unique and proprietary technology platform to disrupt the SiC market, enabling us to customize our SiC wafers, including size, shape, and chemical properties to not only meet the needs of semiconductor devices of today, but for those not yet dreamed of for tomorrow.
The ability to customize wafers unlocks potential for designers and engineers and enables us to create ultra-efficient power electronics for virtually every sector like rail transit, smartphones, the electric grid, 5G communications, military aircraft, electric vehicles and more.
High-purity M-SiC™ Source Powder
Pallidus’s process begins with its proprietary, formulated M-SiC™ source powder that converts faster and more efficiently to high-quality SiC crystals. Pallidus can also add performance-enhancing dopants directly into the M-SiC chemistry.
M-SiC™ Shaped Charge
Pallidus’s technology enables it to create charges of any shape to direct sublimation growth. Precisely-engineered shapes can be modeled for optimal growth control, improving quality and enhancing wafer yields.
Consistent Premium Quality
Controlling inputs for source material enables highly repeatable, high-quality wafers, leading to higher yield, lower defect costs, and higher profits for customers.
Pallidus’s silicon carbide technology can meet the needs of semiconductor devices of today, and for those not yet dreamed of.
