Problems solved by technology

[0004] The invention patent CN201310542018X discloses a precursor flow field control rod. By adding a control rod with different control ends in the center of the precursor GaCl channel, the GaCl flow field of the precursor is intervened, and it is expected to improve the uniformity of the precursor above the substrate. However, the experimental research found that the uniformity of the GaCl precursor was improved to a certain extent after the introduction of the control rod, but side reaction deposits occurred on the wall of the nozzle, which affected the quality of crystal growth.
Therefore, it is still difficult to overcome the problem of uneven distribution of precursors (such as GaCl) on the substrate to meet the high-quality growth of GaN wafers on a large effective substrate area (the precursors in this patent CN201310542018X are reactants)

Abstract

The invention discloses a dual-channel nozzle structure capable of controlling reactant uniform distribution. The structure comprises a first channel and a second channel; wherein the first channel is an equal diameter cylindrical channel or a variable diameter cylindrical channel, the reactant gas in the first channel is GaCl; the second channel is arranged in the center position of the first channel, the gas in the second channel can be N2 or a mixed gas of GaCl and N2, the second channel can be a cylindrical channel, or the second channel can be composed of two sections, the upper section is in a cylindrical shape and the lower section is in an inverse circular truncated cone shape, and the diameters of the upper section and the lower section on the joint part are equal. The dual-channel structure can improve the reactant GaCl radial distribution uniformity near the substrate surface through optimizing the gas flows in the two channels, and thus the uniform growth of GaN crystal material on a large area substrate is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor material growth equipment, in particular to a dual-channel spout structure for uniform distribution of controllable reactants used in hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) growth of III-V semiconductor materials (thin film or thick film). Background technique [0002] With the increasingly prominent status of III-V film materials in the manufacture and development of various semiconductor devices, it has also attracted much attention in the new semiconductor material industry. However, Vapor Phase Epitaxy (VPE) technology is widely used in the preparation of semiconductor thin or thick films. Among them, Hydride Vapor Phase Epitaxy (HVPE) technology is often used in Group III nitride semiconductor materials due to its fast growth rate and low production cost. growth, especially gallium nitride (GaN) thick film growth. [0003] In the traditional HVPE growth system, the heated liquid metal gall...
