@jjh27605 SiC wafers aren't like Si wafers, where the diameter is primarily 300mm and 150nm is still used at large nodes in places like China and Russia. II-VI made the first 200mm SiC back in 2015.

In 2022, 6-inch SiC wafers cost US$900 to US$1,000, comparable to the 2021 level. Going into 2023, the prices will unlikely go down because SiC will be in tight supply.

STMicroelectronics will release Q2 2024 earnings with expected net revenues of $3.2 billion and a gross margin around 40%, a YoY decrease of 7.8%. Read more here.
