Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor devices, particularly relates to a crystal epitaxial structure and a growth method, and aims at solving the problem of how to eliminate the strain in the growth of mismatched epitaxial materials. The crystal epitaxial growth method comprises the following steps: a lattice matching layer is formed on a first surface of a substrate; a first lattice mismatching layer is formed on a second surface of the substrate, wherein the first lattice mismatching layer includes a lattice gradient layer and a lattice stabilization layer; and a second lattice mismatching layer is formed on the lattice matching layer, wherein the second lattice mismatching layer includes a lattice transition layer and a lattice mismatching functional layer, and the lattice constants of the first lattice mismatching layer, the substrate and the second lattice mismatching layer increase or decrease monotonously. Through the formation of the first lattice mismatching layer, the strain states of the substrate and the lattice matching layer are changed, and therefore, the strain generated during the formation of the second lattice mismatching layer is weakened, the generation of dislocations is suppressed, the quality of the crystal epitaxial structure is improved, and the performance of semiconductor devices is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor devices, in particular to a crystal epitaxial structure and a growth method. Background technique [0002] Epitaxial growth refers to the method of extending a crystal surface with a certain crystallographic orientation and growing a single crystal film in a certain crystallographic direction. Epitaxial growth can be used to grow homogeneous and heterogeneous epitaxial layer films with abrupt or gradual changes in composition or impurity distribution. The development of epitaxial technology is of great significance for improving the quality of semiconductor materials and device performance, and for the development of new materials and new devices. [0003] In recent years, with the development of the performance of compound semiconductor devices, the demand for growing high-quality epitaxial layer structures with lattice mismatch on substrates has become more and more urgent. The tradition...
