The growing commercial space economy is lowering launch costs and enabling the construction of large-scale orbital infrastructure, paving the way for industrialization in space. The unique conditions of LEO – such as the absence of convection and the availability of high vacuum – can enable the growth of large defect-free crystals of Wide Bandgap semiconductors (SiC, AlN, Diamond), photonics, and quantum materials which cannot be produced at commercial scale on the ground today. This will unlock new levels of performance and efficiency in critical applications like electric vehicles, renewable energy, and advanced computing.
This talk will explore how commercial space stations, space logistics providers and large-scale orbital infrastructure are together unlocking the production of next-generation semiconductors in space. It will also highlight commercial case studies demonstrating the feasibility and potential of this transformative technology.
