Most analog signal conditioning and digital logic circuits are considered “signal level” in that individual transistors
in these circuits do not typically require any more than a few milliamperes of current and <20 V to function properly.
Commercially available silicon-on-insulator circuits can perform complex digital and [...]

2-17.Polytypes
Many compound materials exhibit polymorphism, that is they can exist in different structures called polymorphs. Silicon carbide (SiC) is unique in this regard as more than 250 polymorphs of silicon carbide had been identified by 2006,with some of them having a lattice constant as [...]

2-25.FWHM
Full width at half maximum (FWHM) is an expression of the extent of a function, given by the difference between the two extreme values of the independent variable at which the dependent variable is equal to half of its maximum value.

2-16.Pits
Individual distinguishable surface anomalies, which appears as a depression in the wafer surface with a lengthto-width ratio less than 5 to 1, and visible under high intensity illumination.

5-6-1 SiC Optoelectronic Devices
The wide bandgap of SiC is useful for realizing short-wavelength blue and ultraviolet (UV) optoelectronics.
6H-SiC-based pn junction light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were the first semiconductor devices
to cover the blue portion of the visible color spectrum, and became the first SiC-based devices to [...]

2-11.Edge Chips
Any edge anomalies (including wafer saw exit marks) in excess of 1.0 mm in either radial depth or width. As viewed under diffuse illumination, edge chips are determined as unintentionally missing material from the edge of the wafer.
