Problems solved by technology

The problem of this invention is that, through the complicated preparation process, the second boost in the crystal growth stage makes the carbonization rate of silicon carbide powder difficult to control, the carbonization rate is too fast, the silicon component sublimates too fast and easily overflows, corrodes the crucible and heat preservation layer, and changing temperature and pressure can also lead to increased crystal stress, increasing the risk of crystal cracking

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a high-quality silicon carbide crystal and a device thereof. The method comprises the steps of thermal field assembly, heating, crystal growing and cooling, wherein the step of thermal field assembly comprises the steps of putting a crystal growing raw material and silicon carbide seed crystal into a graphite crucible, setting a first lantern ring withthe heat conductivity greater than that of graphite on the outer wall of the graphite crucible roughly corresponding to the crystal growing material, and setting a second lantern ring with the heat conductivity less than that of graphite roughly corresponding to the silicon carbide seed crystal. The invention further provides a device for implementing the method. According to the preparation method and device of the silicon carbide crystal, introduction of other component or complicated preparation process is not required, carbon inclusion defect is prevented by controlling the thermal fieldin the crystal growing furnace, the risk of cracking crystal can be reduced, and the quality of silicon carbide crystal can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of crystal growth, in particular to a method for preparing high-quality silicon carbide crystals and a device thereof. Background technique [0002] Silicon carbide (SiC) single crystal material is a representative of the third generation of wide bandgap semiconductor materials, with properties such as wide bandgap, high thermal conductivity, high electron saturation migration rate, high breakdown electric field, etc. Ideal semiconductor materials for high-power devices and high-temperature electronic devices. The physical vapor transport (PVT) method is a widely used technology for growing SiC single crystals. SiC wafers are used as seed crystals, and SiC powder is installed in graphite crucibles as growth materials. The silicon carbide powder is decomposed and sublimated into gas phase components. The gas phase components move to the growth interface with relatively low temperature, and crystallize on th...
