Wolfspeed has launched optical-grade transparent silicon carbide (TSiC) substrates targeting augmented reality (AR) waveguides and quantum computing. The substrates offer low optical absorption, high wafer flatness, and properties suitable for wider AR fields of view and quantum bit preservation.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors, AR & VR and Quantum Computing.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a new opportunity to use silicon carbide substrates that shrink AR devices and boost quantum computing stability. If your work touches AR optics or qubits, this material could replace layers of optics and change how you build components.
