VR software for simulation of PVT SiC can now be used to estimate the expected wafer warpage for different positions of the slice in SiC boule. The model is based on the plastic strain inherited by the wafer from the crystal, which results in the wafer deformation...

New chemical model has been added in HEpiGaNs – simulation of tri-halide vapor phase epitaxy of GaN. Unlike HVPE, production of GaCl3 used as a source in THVPE requires two-step and, respectively, two-chamber process. Simulation of both stages, including exposure of...
