Abstract

The invention provides a rapid annealing method for ohmic contact of metal and silicon carbide, which comprises the steps of (1) placing SiC wafers on a Si sheet tray, then arranging the Si sheet tray on a rapid thermal treatment device, and simultaneously filling the device with protection gas Ar; (2) performing a first temperature-rise period, and keeping the temperature; (3) performing a second temperature-rise period, and steadying the temperature; (4) performing a third temperature-rise period; (5) performing a fourth temperature-rise period, namely, annealing period; and (6) performing a temperature reducing period. The method has benefits as follows: the method is carried out in the commercial rapid thermal treatment device taking any light radiation as a heat source; and the silicon sheet used as the tray can adopt various standards of commercial polishing monocrystalline silicon sheets and has low cost. The annealing method can remove the moisture on the surface of the silicon carbide wafer and stabilize the temperature. On the premise of ensuring the control precision of the peak thermal treatment temperature, the heating rate is improved through changing the setting value. Finally, the annealed ohmic contact resistance is reduced; and the quality of the ohmic contact, the device reliability and the yield are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a rapid annealing method, in particular to a metal-silicon carbide ohmic contact rapid annealing method. Background technique [0002] Silicon carbide (SiC) material is the third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor material developed after the first-generation elemental semiconductor material (Si) and the second-generation compound semiconductor material (GaAs, GaP, InP, etc.). Due to the characteristics of wide band gap, high critical breakdown electric field, high thermal conductivity, and high electron saturation drift velocity, SiC materials are especially suitable for making microwave high-power, high-voltage, high-temperature, and radiation-resistant electronic devices, and have a wide range of applications in all aspects of the national economy. application. At present, the development of SiC devices has become a research hotspot. [0003] One of the key processes in the preparation of SiC devices is to realize the o...
