NOVASiC polishing of SiC began in 1997. Since then, the company has been actively involved in several French National and European SiC and related materials research programs, and has regularly participated in SEMI standards on Silicon Carbide.

 

“NOVASiC provides state of the art wafering and polishing services of high performance semiconductors and industrial crystals to laboratories and industrial customers. NOVASiC concentrates on Silicon Carbide, nitride wafers and other related materials.”

Thanks to its large scope of expertise and equipment, NOVASiC is able to offer a wide range of services on several different materials:

  • Polishing and surface preparation for epitaxy or re-growth

  • Wafer reclaim after defective epitaxy with or without metallization (SiC/SiC, GaN, AlGaN, InGaN, ZnO, ...)


NOVASiC will work:

  • Under contract for dedicated customer process development

  • As a subcontractor, i.e. processing material provided by the customer

  • If required, NOVASiC can also source the base material from commercial vendors and process it to customers' needs
