SILICON CARBIDE (SiC) materials are currently metamorphosing from research and development into a market driven manufacturing product. SiC substrates are currently used as the base for a large fraction of the world production of green, blue, and ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Emerging markets for [...]

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 [...]

5-3-2 High-Power Device Operation
The high breakdown field and high thermal conductivity of SiC coupled with high operational junction
temperatures theoretically permit extremely high-power densities and efficiencies to be realized in SiC
devices. The high breakdown field of SiC relative to silicon enables the blocking voltage region [...]

3-10. Carrots
Similar to comet tails in appearance except they are more angular and lack a discrete head. If present, these features are aligned parallel to the major at. Usually,any carrots present tend to be of the same length. Count once per occurrence. Two [...]

2-31.N type
A semiconductor has electrical conductivity between that of a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors differ from metals in their characteristic property of decreasing electrical resistivity with increasing temperature.Semiconductors can also display properties of passing current more easily in one direction than the other, [...]
