Silicon Carbide Wide Bandgap Polytypes
SKU: 68766W
The Indigo® SiC crystal model can be used to illustrate the nature of wide bandgap semiconductors for teaching power electronics, physics, and materials science.
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide bandgap semiconductor material that has transformed power electronics, outperforming traditional silicon in high-voltage and high-temperature applications. The Indigo® SiC crystal lattice model provides a tangible way to explore its covalent bonding, tetrahedral coordination, and structural polytypes. This model bridges textbook theory with hands-on visualization, making advanced concepts in semiconductor physics and materials science more accessible.
Indigo Instruments has held inventory of genuine Cochranes of Oxford (Orbit) parts for 30+ years (See Skeletal (Orbit/Minit)) that are compatible with every molecular model we have sold since day 1. This level of quality may appear expensive but no parts support from other vendors costs even more.
