    According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global SiC Seed Wafer market size was valued at US$ 47.23 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 180 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 21.0% during review period.
    A SiC Seed Wafer is a high-quality single-crystal SiC wafer used as the seed in bulk SiC crystal growth—most commonly Physical Vapor Transport (PVT). During PVT, SiC source material sublimates at high temperature and the vapor species are transported to a cooler region where they deposit and crystallize on the seed, forming a monocrystalline SiC boule. The seed wafer therefore acts as the crystallographic “template” that governs the grown boule’s polytype, orientation, and surface polarity.
    Upstream, seed wafers are typically prepared from previously grown high-quality SiC boules (often from the same supply chain used to make device substrates). The boule is sliced and processed through steps such as lapping/grinding and CMP (chemical–mechanical polishing) to achieve the required flatness, low roughness, and low subsurface damage. Seed wafers are also commonly specified with a controlled off-cut (miscut) to preserve polytype and enable step-flow growth behavior in subsequent epitaxy and/or controlled crystal growth.
    Downstream, the seed wafer is mounted in the PVT crucible (typically at the top/lid, in the cooler zone) to initiate and stabilize boule growth; in diameter-expansion practice, wafers sliced from an enlarged boule can be characterized and re-selected as seeds for the next growth run, enabling stepwise scale-up. The resulting boules are then sliced into SiC substrates for end markets such as power electronics and RF electronics.
    In 2025, global production of SiC Seed Wafer reached approximately 160 K Pcs, with an average global market price of around US$ 286/Pcs. Production capacity varies significantly among manufacturers, with gross profit margins ranging from approximately 5% to 30%.
