n-Type SiC Substrates
Wolfspeed is transitioning to a new wafer scribe format based upon SEMI specification M12-0706. This conversion is projected to be fully integrated across all products by the end of 2023, and brings several improvements. The M12-based scribe will be positioned upright when the major flat or notch is oriented up, making the scribe easier to read when the wafers are loaded into cassettes. The new format includes a wafer supplier identification code, validating the wafer’s authenticity. It also includes a checksum, which is an error-detection method that prevents OCR mis-read errors and reduces the instance of processing errors associated with such event.

Dimensional Properties, Terminology and Measurements
Flat Length | Linear dimension of the flat measured with automated optical micrometer. |
Primary Flat | The flat of the longest length on the wafer, oriented such that the chord is parallel with a specified low-index crystal plane. |
Primary Flat Orientation | The primary flat is the (1100) plane with the flat face parallel to the [1120] direction. |
Secondary Flat | Not applicable to 150 mm wafers. |
Marking | For silicon face polished material, the carbon face of each individual wafer is laser-marked with OCR-compatible font, similar to the definitions and characteristics in SEMI M12. The laser markings are offset right when looking at the carbon face with the primary flat oriented down. For carbon face polish material, the silicon face of each individual wafer is laser-marked. |
