Companies like Cree Inc and ON Semiconductor Corp are investing in making the chips. Silicon carbide chips are difficult to manufacture because the material is very hard. They are bulk-manufactured on discs called “wafers” that are later sliced into individual chips. But wafers first must be polished perfectly smooth, Show less Read more
