Third-Generation Semiconductor SiC Crystal Growth and Wafer Processing Technology Seminar
On May 28, 2026, the Third-Generation Semiconductor SiC Crystal Growth and Wafer Processing Technology Seminar, hosted by China Powder Network, was successfully held at the Sheraton Hefei Xinzhan Ligang Hotel.
A total of 220 experts, researchers, technical professionals, and industry representatives from across the silicon carbide (SiC) value chain attended the event. The seminar focused on in-depth discussions covering SiC single crystal growth technologies, advancements in wafer processing techniques, equipment applications, and future development trends of the SiC industry.
1. Analysis of Industry Development and Competitive Landscape
Mr. Yao Shuang, Deputy General Manager of HWlEiC Laser, delivered a keynote presentation titled:
“Application of Laser Precision Processing in SiC Materials”
The presentation provided a comprehensive analysis of the current development status and competitive landscape of the SiC industry, while systematically elaborating on the strategic significance of laser processing technologies in advancing SiC manufacturing.
Non-contact Laser Lift-Off (LLO) technology effectively eliminates tool wear and avoids mechanical stress-induced wafer damage, which are common issues in conventional processing methods. This enables high-quality and high-precision wafer separation, significantly improving both processing efficiency and yield of SiC wafers.
At the same time, LLO technology contributes to reducing the manufacturing cost of SiC substrates by minimizing material loss. It demonstrates clear advantages, including:
- High processing efficiency
- Low material loss
- Stable processing quality
