In recent years, there has been a notable surge in market attention directed towards third-generation semiconductors, particularly Silicon Carbide (SiC). This heightened interest is primarily attributed to the unique characteristics of SiC, including its capability to withstand higher voltages and temperatures, provide enhanced power conversion efficiency, and achieve superior transmission efficiency at high frequencies. These attributes position SiC as an ideal choice for various applications, including electric vehicles (EV), renewable energy, optoelectronics, satellite communications, national defense, and military applications.
Furthermore, the challenging acquisition of SiC materials has prompted several countries to recognize upstream crystal growth materials as crucial strategic resources within their national semiconductor strategies.

Methodology
Primary research with a holistic, cross-domain approach
The exhaustive primary research methods are central to the value that the analyst delivers. A combination of questionnaires and on-site visits to the major manufacturers provides a first view of the latest data and trends. Information is subsequently validated by interviews with the manufacturers' suppliers and customers, covering a holistic industry value chain. This process is backed up by a cross-domain team-based approach, creating an interlaced network across numerous interrelated components and system-level devices to ensure statistical integrity and provide in-depth insight.
Complementing primary research is a running database and secondary research of industry and market information. Dedicated research into the macro-environmental trends shaping the ICT industry also allows the analyst to forecast future development trends and generate foresight perspectives. With more than 20 years of experience and endeavors in research, the methods and methodologies include:
Method
