Thermal field structure for growing large-sized silicon carbide monocrystal

Abstract

The invention provides a thermal field structure for growing large-sized silicon carbide monocrystal. The structure integrally comprises a crucible, a crucible cover, a seed crystal rod, an upper insulating layer structure, a lower insulating layer structure, a lateral insulating layer structure and an induction coil, wherein the crucible is divided into a cylindrical bottomless structure and a crucible support, the cylindrical bottomless structure is put on the crucible support and is made of a high-purity graphite material, and the crucible support is made of a high-temperature-resistance insulating material; the lower end of the seed crystal rod has a seed crystal tray structure, and is moved along with height reduction of a solid raw material in the sublimating process; the induction coil structure outside the lateral insulating layer structure can be moved downwards from top, so that a reasonable interval between a growing interface of crystal and a raw material can be ensured. The thermal field structure can be used for reducing the probability of crystal fracture and effectively reducing the defects of micropipe, stress and the like inside the crystal, and realizes the growth of large-sized half-insulating silicon carbide monocrystal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a thermal field structure for growing a large-size silicon carbide single crystal, in particular to a device structure for reverse temperature gradient control of a PVT method for growing a large-size silicon carbide crystal. Background technique [0002] As a third-generation semiconductor material, silicon carbide has the excellent characteristics of a band gap several times higher than that of traditional silicon materials, and has the characteristics of high breakdown electric field strength and good thermal stability. Electronic application fields such as aerospace, military industry, nuclear energy and other extreme environment applications have irreplaceable advantages. [0003] To sum up the advantages of silicon carbide crystals, silicon carbide will replace silicon materials in various fields in the future, so the demand for silicon carbide materials will also increase. At present, the size of silicon carbide single ...
