Indium Phosphide (InP) wafers (or substrates) are III-V compound semiconductor substrates characterized by a direct bandgap, high electron mobility, and high saturation velocity, making them essential for high-speed optoelectronic and microwave devices. These wafers are typically manufactured through techniques such as Liquid Encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) and Bridgman (Vertical or Horizontal) methods, resulting in high crystalline quality and low defect densities. Standard wafer diameters include 2-inch (50.8 mm), 3-inch (76.2 mm), and 4-inch (100 mm), with 2-inch and 3-inch dominating current usage. However, 4-inch wafers are gaining traction, and 5-inch R&D is underway to support larger-scale production.
In terms of application, InP wafers (or substrates) are indispensable in high-speed optical communication components-such as lasers, modulators, and photodetectors-especially in 25G/50G/100G and emerging 400G+ optical transceivers used in data centers. They are also used in RF and microwave ICs, 5G/6G communication systems, terahertz technologies, quantum devices, infrared sensors, and aerospace defense systems. The explosive growth of AI, cloud computing, and data center interconnects is driving significant demand for InP-based optoelectronics. Looking forward, the industry is shifting toward larger wafer sizes and localized supply chains, especially in Asia, to enhance cost efficiency and scalability. Domestic ecosystems in China, Korea, and other regions are investing in epitaxy, slicing, and polishing technology to achieve self-sufficiency and break foreign monopolies. Overall, InP wafers (or substrates) are expected to play a central role in the next wave of optoelectronic and RF innovation.
