Example Embodiment

[0018] Specific embodiment 1: This embodiment is a patterned substrate for AlN crystal growth. The patterned substrate for AlN crystal growth is to embed uniformly arranged pattern units on the substrate, and the shape of the pattern unit is a regular hexagonal pyramid. , The side length is a 2 The upper bottom surface is on the plane of the substrate surface, and the side length of the bottom bottom surface is a 1 , The height of the graphic unit is c 1 , Where a 1 = N 1 a, c 1 = N 1 c, a 2 = N 2 a 1 , A and c are the unit cell parameters of the hexagonal AlN crystal, 01 ≤15×10 7 , 12 ≤3.

[0019] The side length a of the bottom surface of the graphics unit described in this embodiment 1 And the height is c 1 N is the corresponding AlN unit cell parameter 1 Times, 01 ≤15×10 7 , N 1 The value of includes but not limited to (0,15×10 7 ] An integer in the interval.

[0020] In this embodiment, n 2 The value of includes but is not limited to integers in the interval (1, 3).

Example Embodiment

[0024] Specific embodiment two: This embodiment is different from the specific embodiment one in that n 1 Is an integer, n 2 Is an integer. Other parameters are the same as in the first embodiment.

[0025] In this embodiment, n 1 Is (0, 15×10 7 ) An integer in the interval, that is, the side length a of the bottom surface of the graphic unit 1 And the height is c 1 Is an integer multiple of the corresponding AlN unit cell parameter (n 1 Times), the top and bottom side length of the graphics unit a 2 Is an integer multiple of the AlN unit cell parameter a (n 1 ·N 2 Times).

[0026] With n 1 , N 2 Compared with non-integer multiples, when n 1 , N 2 The pattern unit when it is an integer will be more conducive to controlling the growth process of AlN crystal. This is reflected in: due to the size limitation, when AlN single crystal is deposited at the unit pattern, it is more likely to form several integer AlN unit cells, and The unit cells will also be arranged more regularly, which...

Abstract

The invention relates to an patterned substrate for aluminum nitride (AlN) crystal growth, which resolves the problems that at present a method using seed crystals to prepare large AlN crystals is high in cost of AlN seed crystals, and quality of AlN crystal can be affected by the fact that SiC seed crystals are prone to resolve at high temperature. The patterned substrate is formed by the fact that evenly-distributed image units are embedded on the substrate, the shape of each image unit is in a regular six prism frustum, an upper bottom face with side length of a2 is arranged on the plane where the substrate is arranged, the side length of a lower bottom face is a1, and the height of each image unit is c1, wherein the a1 is equal to n1a, the c1 is n1c, the a2 is n2a1, a and c are lattice parameters of the hexagon AlN crystals, the n1 is larger than 0 and equal to or smaller than 15*107, and the n2 is larger than 1 and equal to or smaller than 3. The patterned substrate is simple in preparation process. The grown AlN crystal has the advantages of being large in diameter and low in defect density.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a patterned substrate for AlN crystal growth. Background technique [0002] AlN crystal is an important wide bandgap (6.2eV) semiconductor material with high thermal conductivity (330W / m.K), high resistivity, good UV transmittance and high radiation resistance. , High-power electronic devices, optoelectronic devices, laser devices and other semiconductor devices have a good application prospect. [0003] A large number of studies have proved that the PVT method is one of the most effective ways to prepare large-sized AlN crystals. This method evaporates the material in a high-temperature area and utilizes the diffusion and transport of vapor to generate crystals in a low-temperature area. Using this method, the crystal raw material can be used to nucleate spontaneously to grow a single crystal, and the seed crystal can also be used to make the crystal raw material deposit on the seed crystal after sublimation to grow into a si...
