Problems solved by technology

[0005] Among them, wet etching has the advantages of high removal efficiency, simple operation, and low cost, but its controllability is poor, and it will produce corrosion pits and impurities that are difficult to remove on the surface.
Although the general dry etching has good controllability and clean substrate surface, it has high cost, strong gas corrosiveness, and high equipment requirements.
At the same time, the above two techniques for etching C-surface silicon carbide are not satisfactory in large-scale areas.

Abstract

The invention provides a silicon carbide surface processing method, comprising: placing silicon carbide powder and a silicon carbide crystal with surfaces to be processed in a vacuum cavity; and heating the silicon carbide powder to a first temperature in order to decompose the powder so as to form Si atmosphere, at least locating the surfaces to be processed of the silicon carbide crystal in the Si atmosphere, and heating the silicon carbide crystal to a second temperature so that the surfaces to be processed of the silicon carbide crystal and the Si atmosphere generate etching reaction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a silicon carbide surface treatment method, in particular to a method for etching the surface of a silicon carbide wafer. Background technique [0002] Silicon carbide is one of the wide-bandgap semiconductor materials that has received widespread attention. It has the advantages of low density, large band gap, high breakdown voltage, good thermal stability, excellent frequency response characteristics, and good chemical stability. It is ideal for high-frequency, Ideal substrate material for high voltage, high power devices and blue light emitting diodes. In recent years, with the rise of graphene research, the use of silicon carbide epitaxial graphene has become one of the most promising methods to realize the application of graphene electronic devices. [0003] Silicon carbide wafers as homogeneous or heterogeneous epitaxial substrates are usually cut by mechanical methods and polished mechanically and chemically, such as f...
