Huawei's third-generation semiconductor materials achieve a thousand times better performance

Release on : Aug 26, 2019

Huawei invested 700 million yuan in wholly-owned holdings. Hubble Technology Investment Co., Ltd., which was just established on April 23 this year, has invested in Shandong Tianyue Advanced Materials Technology Co., Ltd., holding 10%. Shandong Tianyue is China's third-generation semiconductor material silicon carbide leading enterprise.

Huachuang Securities believes that China and the global 5G network are under construction on a large scale. Big data transmission, cloud computing, AI technology, and the Internet of Things, including the next step of energy transmission, have placed increasing demands on network transmission speed and capacity. The market demand for high-power chips is very large. While the loading of silicon materials has reached the limit, there is no room for breakthrough in the performance and capability limits of semiconductor devices using silicon as a substrate.

Silicon carbide is an ideal substrate material for manufacturing high-temperature, high-frequency, high-power semiconductor devices. Its comprehensive performance can be improved by thousands of times compared with silicon materials. It is known as the "core" of solid-state light sources, power electronics, and microwave RF devices. "New engine" for industries such as optoelectronics and microelectronics. After the mass production of silicon carbide materials, it will break the foreign monopoly and promote the domestic 5G chip technology and production capacity.
