Application of precision ceramics in semiconductor and new energy fields
Today’s world has undergone unprecedented changes and accelerated evolution. A new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation are advancing by leaps and bounds. Scientific and technological innovation has become the main battlefield of international strategic games. Competition around the commanding heights of science and technology is unprecedentedly fierce.
Precision ceramics are a high-tech material that is currently developing rapidly around the world. The main components of this ceramic are silicon carbide, silicon nitride, zirconium oxide, beryllium oxide, boron nitride, titanium dioxide, etc. , excellent performance and increasingly diverse types.
Precision ceramic materials are an important component of new materials and are widely used in high-tech fields such as communications, electronics, aviation, aerospace, military, etc. They are also increasingly used in new energy and semiconductor industries.
New energy fields include new energy electric vehicles, lithium battery ceramic separators, photovoltaics and wind power generation, and ceramic materials are increasingly used. Oxide and non-oxide ceramic materials combined through ionic and covalent bonds, due to their excellent The thermal properties, mechanical and electrical properties, are widely used in the fields of new energy vehicles, semiconductor equipment, photovoltaic and wind power generation. Its market size is expected to exceed tens of billions by 2025.
In recent years, the semiconductor industry has developed rapidly, the scale of the industry has grown rapidly, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment continues to develop in the direction of precision and complexity. The technical requirements for high-precision ceramic key components are also getting higher and higher. The value of high-precision ceramic components accounts for more than 15% Semiconductor equipment, the global market is approximately US$1 billion, almost completely monopolized by foreign companies such as the United States, Japan, and South Korea.
Third generation semiconductor materials; precision ceramic parts for semiconductor equipment (such as photolithography machines, plasma etching machines, ion implanters, heat treatment furnaces, diffusion furnaces, CVD equipment); ceramic bearings for new energy vehicles and wind power, metallization of insulating ceramics , ceramic sensors, semiconductor power devices and packaging; nanoceramic powders, new processes for preparing high-performance ceramics, new sintering equipment, new materials and new technology applications and the application development of the semiconductor new energy industry chain.
Precision ceramics provide valuable opportunities for mutual exchanges between upstream and downstream enterprises in the semiconductor industry and new energy vehicles, and solve bottlenecks that restrict the development of precision ceramic materials and key parts industries in the semiconductor and new energy fields.
