SiC Seed Crystal 150 – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for SiC Seed Crystal 150?

A: Silicon carbide as a crystalline material does not have a unique CAS number assigned to seed-grade wafers; the base compound SiC is listed under CAS 409-21-2. Product-specific traceability is provided via internal lot ID and QC certificate.


Q2: What is the recommended usage life or reuse limit per SiC Seed Crystal 150 wafer?

A: SiC seed crystals are designed for single-use in primary PVT growth cycles. Reuse is not recommended due to potential surface degradation, carbon segregation, and defect accumulation after high-temperature exposure (>2200 °C).


Q3: How does SiC Seed Crystal 150 differ from standard SiC substrates used for device fabrication?

A: Unlike device-grade substrates, SiC Seed Crystal 150 features enhanced crystal perfection (lower EPD), tighter thickness uniformity, and specialized surface preparation optimized for epitaxial layer nucleation—not electrical performance or backside metallization.


Q4: Are there any known extractables or leachables from SiC Seed Crystal 150 during high-temperature growth?

A: No significant elemental migration occurs under standard PVT conditions. SiC is chemically inert above 1600 °C in argon/vacuum environments; ICP-MS analysis of post-growth chamber residues shows <0.1 ppb Si or C release attributable to the seed itself.
