About the subject
This webinar delivers a deep dive into the 2024 intellectual property (IP) landscape across the Silicon Carbide (SiC) power device supply chain. We begin by quantifying overall patenting activity, spotlighting the leading corporate assignees—such as Wolfspeed, Infineon, Onsemi, and STMicroelectronics—and examining how their strategic patent filings reveal competitive positioning in substrates, epitaxial processes, device architectures, and packaging solutions. Next, we analyze the remarkable acceleration of SiC patent applications originating from China, exploring its drivers, key domestic players, and potential impacts on global IP competition. Finally, we synthesize recent patent filings to uncover emerging technological trajectories—ranging from engineered SiC substrates to next-generation SiC devices and advanced packaging solutions—that are poised to shape the evolution of SiC power electronics.
