4 Min ReadSilicon carbide (SiC) provides considerable technical advantages for power electronics – however, the costs are still a drawback. In the »ThinSiCPower« research project, a consortium of Fraunhofer Institutes is developing key technologies to reduce material losses and device thickness while increasing the thermomechanical stability of the assembled SiC chips. The savings achieved are expected to help further accelerate the market development of efficient SiC power electronics.
Power electronics based on the wide-bandgap semiconductor silicon carbide (SiC) are a key enabler for energy-efficient, sustainable and high-performance applications in electromobility – from cars and commercial vehicles to trains, ships and airplanes, in the generation, transportation and storage of renewable energies, as well as for IT and industrial infrastructures. It is therefore an important and competitively relevant factor for the current global transformation processes in the areas of mobility, energy and digitalization. The market for SiC power devices is expected to grow at an annual rate of over 30 percent. Compared to conventional silicon technology, the use of SiC power electronics in a standard drive converter saves more energy than is required to manufacture the SiC power electronics themselves.
While the technological advantages of SiC are obvious due to its physical properties, the higher costs compared to the established silicon are still an obstacle to faster market penetration. Chip costs are more than three times higher than for silicon. The initially required SiC wafer is the biggest cost driver here. In the case of a SiC-based metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), this accounts for more than 40 percent of the manufacturing costs. In addition, due to the unfavorable mechanical material properties and large thickness of the monocrystalline SiC wafer, electronics processed from it only achieve approx. 30 percent of the thermomechanical service life compared to silicon. This disadvantage leads to an approx. 25 percent larger chip area and, in the case of an inverter for example, to around 25 percent higher costs in the application.
In the three-year ThinSiCPower project (2024-2027), funded by the Fraunhofer PREPARE program, researchers are developing an alternative way to produce cost-effective SiC substrates and significantly thinner SiC chips using more resource-efficient processing technologies. Rather than first sawing the expensive, high-quality SiC wafers with the usual material loss and later back-grinding them in device processing, the SiC crystal is separated directly into thinner wafers using a special laser process without any major loss of material, which are then bonded onto an inexpensive carrier substrate based on polycrystalline SiC.
Fraunhofer ISE, ENAS and IWM with the Fraunhofer IISB as project coordinator are pooling their individual competencies in ThinSiCPower. A SiC coating technology developed by Fraunhofer IISB is being adapted for the manufacturing of the poly-SiC carrier substrates, which is more cost- and resource-efficient than the conventional manufacturing method using chemical vapor deposition. The low-loss separation of the thin SiC wafers is carried out using a laser for defined mechanical pre-damage (Fraunhofer ISE) and subsequent separation under well-defined mechanical conditions for controlled crack propagation (Fraunhofer IWM).
The wafer bonding process for the poly-SiC substrate with the split SiC, including the necessary surface preparation before and after the bonding process, will be developed at Fraunhofer ENAS, while the subsequent device processing and qualification will take place at Fraunhofer IISB. The partners are also developing adapted electrical test methods at thin wafer level as well as physics-of-failure simulation models to maximize the market acceptance of this new class of low-cost SiC substrates. With this, a broad applicability in the relevant industries could be achieved.
The aim is to reduce SiC device costs by 25 percent by developing technology for the production of costeffective thin SiC wafers and poly-SiC substrates. In addition, SiC design costs are to be reduced by further 25 percent by increasing the load cycle stability by 300 percent. The target markets are semiconductor and power module manufacturers as well as their process and equipment suppliers through to test equipment suppliers. With this project, the participating partner institutes are also combining their expertise to set up a complete, highly innovative and future-oriented SiC processing line within the Research Fab Microelectronics Germany (FMD). The consortium is receiving consultancy support directly from partners in industry.
The ThinSiCPower project not only accelerates the market penetration of silicon carbide through the targeted cost reduction and conceptual advantages, but also serves to secure an innovative, resilient and industry relevant SiC technology value chain in Germany and Europe.

Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH has launched an N-channel power MOSFET to address the growing market demand for improved efficiency in power supply circuits. The new TK024N60Z1 uses the proven DTMOSVI 600V series process with a super junction structure to achieve low on-resistance and reduced conduction losses. Applications include servers in data centres, switched-mode power supplies for industrial equipment, and power conditioners for photovoltaic generators.
The TK024N60Z1 has a drain-source on-resistance RDS(ON) of 0.024Ω (max), which is the lowest in the DTMOSVI 600V series. It also improves power supply efficiency, which reduces heat generation. Combined with the TO-247 package, which delivers high heat dissipation, the TK024N60Z1 offers good heat management characteristics.
Like other MOSFETS in the DTMOSVI 600V series, the TK024N60Z1 benefits from an optimised gate design and process. This reduces the value of drain-source on-resistance per unit area by approximately 13%. More importantly, drain-source on-resistance × gate-drain charge is reduced by approximately 52% compared to Toshiba’s conventional generation DTMOSIV-H series products with the same drain-source voltage rating. This means the DTMOSVI series, including the TK024N60Z1, offers a better trade-off between conduction loss and switching loss, which helps improve the efficiency of switched-mode power supplies.
To further improve power supply efficiency, Toshiba offers tools that support circuit design for switched-mode power supplies. These include the G0 SPICE model, which quickly verifies circuit function, and the highly accurate G2 SPICE models that reproduce transient characteristics.
The TK024N60Z1 N-channel power MOSFET exemplifies Toshiba’s commitment to continue expanding the DTMOSVI series and support energy conservation by reducing power loss in switched-mode power supplies.
