According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global N-Type SiC Seed Crystal market size was valued at US$ 38.99 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 150 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 21.2% during review period.
An N-type SiC seed crystal is a high-quality single-crystal SiC seed (often a seed wafer/slice) with n-type electrical conductivity used to initiate and template bulk SiC crystal growth. In industrial practice, it is most frequently used in PVT growth, where a SiC source is sublimated at high temperature and the vapor species are transported to the seed crystal, on which the bulk single crystal (boule) grows; the seed therefore defines the initial crystallographic template (polytype/orientation) while the n-type character supports conductive-substrate supply chains.
Upstream, N-type SiC seed wafers are typically prepared from previously grown SiC boules/ingots by slicing and wafer-finishing steps (lapping/grinding, polishing and CMP) to achieve flatness and low subsurface damage. The upstream ecosystem also includes high-purity SiC source material for PVT, graphite hot-zone components (e.g., crucible), and dopant/chemistry control—where nitrogen or phosphorus donors are the standard n-type dopants and nitrogen is known to substitute on carbon sites in SiC.
Downstream, the seed wafer is mounted in the PVT crucible to grow conductive (n-type) SiC boules, which are then sliced into n-type SiC substrates used for power-device manufacturing.
In 2025, global production of N-type SiC seed crystal reached approximately 134 K Pcs, with an average global market price of around US$ 282/Pcs. Production capacity varies significantly among manufacturers, with gross profit margins ranging from approximately 5% to 30%.
