This S2MARTS announcement, through the NSTXL Innovation Network, is intended to survey U.S. companies that produce capacitors, magnetics and other components that are peripheral in a range of circuits and applications that employ silicon carbide semiconductors. The objective is to gather information from U.S. companies that have developed, or are willing to develop, technical and manufacturing capabilities specific to such components that are rated >100C junction temperature (Tj) and plans for future development aimed at achieving > 200C, and in the longer term, 250C Tj for commercial and defense applications.

This S2MARTS announcement is intended to survey U.S. companies in the silicon carbide defense supply chain through NSTXL’s Innovation Network. The objective is to gather information related to the extent that U.S. companies have developed, or are willing to develop, technical and manufacturing capabilities specific to the silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductor device supply chain, including substrates, epitaxy, device processing steps, packaging, and modules for > 5kV devices; and company plans for future development and sales of such devices for commercial and defense applications. Universities and industry consortia with interest in such programs are also welcome to respond.

This S²MARTS announcement is intended to survey U.S. companies in the silicon carbide defense supply chain industry through NSTXL’s Innovation Network.
