C-face sapphire is an important material, especially in LED and laser substrate applications.C-face sapphire, i.e., sapphire wafers with <0001> orientation, is a specific crystalline oriented form of sapphire crystal. It is widely used in LEDs, optoelectronic devices, consumer electronics and the aerospace industry.

While sapphire has greater hardness and scratch resistance, its brittleness also means it is more likely to break in everyday use. Sapphire crystals have virtually no internal impurities or defects, resulting in excellent electrical insulation and transparency, which makes it useful for a wide range of applications in optical windows and high-performance substrate materials. 8-inch C-face (0001) sapphire wafers can enable chipmakers to increase productivity and help them significantly reduce costs. c-face sapphire plays an important role in LEDs, lasers, and high-performance optical components. Sapphire single crystals are also widely used in the manufacture of infrared window materials for military optoelectronic equipment due to their excellent overall performance.
