Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, with the growth of the crystal, the gas-phase transmission distance of the raw material is gradually shortened, and the temperature difference between the crystal growth interface and the raw material interface is gradually reduced. The growth interface is placed in a high-temperature region, which makes the temperature of the growth interface rise. The temperature gradient in the z-axis direction, that is, the axial temperature gradient gradually decreases, and the decrease of the axial temperature gradient will, on the one hand, lead to slower atmosphere transmission, making it difficult for the ingot to grow thicker; Meteorological composition Si in the interface region m C m As the concentration increases, the probability of interaction will also increase, and in severe cases, polymorphism will occur due to the decrease in the supersaturation of the atmosphere.
[0004] At the same time, during the SiC crystal growth process, with the growth of the crystal edge size, the radial temperature gradient gradually decreases, which leads to the acceleration of the growth rate of the edge region of the crystal. On the one hand, it is easy to produce micropipes, Polytype, edge polycrystalline and other defects, on the other hand, it is difficult to further increase the diameter of the seed crystal
[0005] Therefore, when using the PVT method to prepare silicon carbide single crystals, especially in the crystal growth stage, the instability of the axial temperature gradient and radial temperature gradient limits the improvement of the quality and size of silicon carbide single crystals
Patent CN211497869U provides a crystal annealing treatment device, by setting heaters above, below and around the crucible, so as to eliminate the stress inside the crystal and reduce the probability of crystal cracking, but this device is for the post-treatment of the crystal that has grown , cannot increase the crystal size, nor can it play a role in improving the quality of the boule
