Maker of silicon-carbide (SiC) crystal substrates used in power semiconductors for EVs, solar inverters and industrial power.
Maker of silicon-carbide (SiC) crystal substrates used in power semiconductors for EVs, solar inverters and industrial power.
Sells wafers sliced from silicon carbide crystal, a hard material that handles high voltage; because the crystal grows slowly and few come out usable, cost per good wafer drives results. Besides Chinese chip makers it supplies overseas customers, including Infineon under a supply agreement signed in 2023.
In one line: A Chinese Wolfspeed for SiC substrates.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, IP / patents, customer qualification). Early domestic leader in SiC crystal growth, a technically difficult process few Chinese firms have mastered.
Headquarters: Jinan, Shandong, China · Founded: 2010 · Employees: 1,303
